Digital Conflict and the Authoritarian Rule of Digital Evolution

In the modern world, digital transformation is a topic of much discussion. From providing legal identity for all to fostering economic and social inclusion, the United Nations Agenda 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) play a significant role in advancing this global shift. However, the resistance to digital IDs is not merely imaginary, as indicated in a report by Iain Davis and Whitney Webb. People in countries such as India, China, and many others have shown a lack of enthusiasm for embracing their planned digital future and have actively resisted in many instances.

The digital revolution is giving way to the 4IR, where the ultimate goal is to merge man with machines. This transformation is facilitated by technologies like AI, biometrics, and digital IDs, which are considered essential components for the transition. The supreme goal of this digital revolution and cognitive warfare, as declared, is to turn Teilhard's Omega Point, a concept of total convergence of collective human consciousness, from theory into reality.

Cognitive warfare has been deliberately engineered to make people think there is a bottom-up demand for digital surveillance tools, but the demand is coming solely from the top through various international organizations and governments. The plan involves the weaponization of public opinion, manipulation and militarization of the human mind, and engineering of individual and collective behavior. Technologies like machine learning and brain-computer interfaces (BCI) boost the efficiency of cognitive warfare.

The use of digital IDs raises concerns about privacy, surveillance, and control. Digital IDs can be used for 24/7 surveillance, restrict travel and access to goods and services, destroy privacy and online anonymity, restrict access to social media and Internet services, track compliance with medical dictates, control access to banking, public services, public spaces, entertainment venues, medical facilities, workplaces, schools, and more. They can also compromise a person's identity through security breaches, employ biometric identification techniques like facial recognition, iris and retina scans, fingerprints, voice recognition, gestures, bodily implants, DNA matching, and gait.

The potential for social, financial, and even mental control cannot be disregarded with the implementation of digital ID and biometric technologies. The digital genie unleashed cannot be put back in the bottle, and scientists, tech wizards, and bureaucrats are seizing opportunities to craft the future and stake their claim to the billions of dollars up for grabs in research, development, and deployment.

It's important to remember that freedom, liberty, and justice depend on eternal vigilance in the face of the digital transformation. The noosphere, a concept advanced by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, a 20th-century Jesuit priest, refers to a realm where human minds interact through increasingly complex social networks. As we move forward in this digital age, it's crucial to maintain a balanced perspective, considering both the benefits and potential risks.

The UN, Gates Foundation, and various governments are pushing for the rollout of digital public infrastructure in 50 countries by 2028. Countries like Europe, Australia, Africa, Italy, Belgium, and Sri Lanka are among those actively working on digital public infrastructure. However, it's essential to approach this transformation with caution, ensuring that our rights and freedoms are protected in the process.

According to Patrick Wood, the bio-digital surveillance system of today fits everything outlined in The Technocracy Study Course of 1945, and many of the UN Sustainable Development Goals mirror many elements outlined in this publication. It's a reminder that the past can provide valuable insights into the present and future.

The Jesuit priest who developed the idea of the noosphere was Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. His ideas were seen as conflicting with traditional Church teachings on creation and original sin, and he was publicly condemned by the Catholic Church. Today, his ideas about the interconnectedness of human minds and the potential for a global consciousness continue to resonate.

In conclusion, the digital transformation is a complex issue with significant implications for our society. While it may offer benefits, it's crucial to remain vigilant and ensure that our rights and freedoms are protected. As we navigate this digital age, it's essential to remember the lessons of the past and strive for a future that values both progress and respect for individual autonomy.
