Data is Control: You're Paying to Be the Product

The Not-so-subtle way you are controlled

Feb 11, 2024

It’s 2024 and Apple Launches its most dystopian product yet its seems many people are willing to pay thousands of dollars to be controlled by strapping their phone to their heads.

The consumer is now paying for their data to be collected and sold. Apple is profiting from the same product in multiple different ways:

First, they Sell the consumer the product.

Second they track and collect data of the end user to bundle and package together to advertise as accurately as possible.

Then, they sell this data to other interested parties (Other corporations and governments).

Would you buy these?

Are you the Customer or are you the Product?

Below is a quote about television from the ‘70’s…

Commercial television delivers 20 million people a minute.
In commercial broadcasting the viewer pays for the privilege of having himself sold.
It is the consumer who is consumed.
You are the product of t.v.
You are delivered to the advertiser who is the customer.
He consumes you.
The viewer is not responsible for programming——
You are the end product.

-Richard Serra “Television Delivers People” (1973)

We have all heard the quote “If it’s free then you are the product” which is usually true. Major social media platforms aren’t making free apps out of the goodness of their hearts.

The strategy is simple: Get people to use an application in return for their valuable personal data. Then, use and sell the data for profit.

The data collected used to be limited to:

email
passwords
address
date of birth
pictures and past location

Then biometric data came into the fold:

Face scan (facial recognition)
Fingerprint scan
Voice recognition
key strokes

In 2024, the next step in data collection is here:

Real time location
Real time eye movement
Realtime brainwaves (and thoughts)
Historical data for all of the above (to predict your next move)

You are Paying to Be the Product

We are in an era where in order to use technology we pay for it with two sets of currency:

Money
Our Personal Data

The Apple Vision Pro is a new product that costs a lot: $3,500.

Said another way, that's $3,500 that you are paying to have a company track your every move, track your eye movement, track your brain waves, and listen in on your conversations.

Can you tell that I am very much against this technology?

Wearable Devices are Being Promoted by WEF

The world economic forum is a propaganda machine. It’s pushing globalization and control through the guise of ‘helping the world’.

This is a dystopian presentation from the WEF on how ‘your thoughts and feelings are just data that needs to be tracked and decoded by AI”…. I’m all good on that.

This is a new era of data collection.

Wearable and implantable devices are meant to help large corporations track you. They want to know where you are, what you are looking at, and what you are thinking. They plan on storing and packaging this data to private businesses and governments. This is the most profitable data ever.

How Data Collection Leads to Control

Do you know what happens to the location data on your smartphone?

A new report claims the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention bought location data collected from tens of millions of phones with an eye toward using it to track compliance with Covid-19 restrictions, along with other potential purposes. And as you might imagine, that's raising some concerns about what groups are able to access the data produced by our smartphones — and what they're planning to use that data for.

Controlling organizations like large corporations and governments pay a LOT of money for data. They pay to know where you are, what you are looking at, and what you are thinking at any given moment.

Technology being introduced this year is unlocking a whole new set of data collection: Real-time location, eye, and brainwave tracking.

The Solution: Just say no to Tracking, implanting, and data collection for you and your family.

Stop doing the following:

Finger print to open computer or phone
Using Facial recognition to open your phone
Using Alexa or anything similar in your home
Leaving location tracking on
