Maybe, but as I always say, today's "crazy conspiracy theory" is tomorrow's news.

so-called crazy people were talking about how the ultra wealthy were going to use microchips in our brains to control us...now the ultra wealthy are in the first stage of that.

Always ask yourself, "what does this person have to gain from doing that?" if corporations can beam ads into our heads...that's bad. Handing over your biometrics to amazon so you can buy groceries without cash or credit cards is bad. having all your identity information associated with a QR code that leads to a hackable database controlled by big tech it's bad.

Cashless economies are bad, city-wide surveillance with facial recognition is bad....and the only reason no one is freaking out and putting these dystopian oligarchs in stockades is because no one knows and no one knows because fewer and fewer people are asking questions about things. "just asking questions!" right? it's bad to ask questions, "do your own research!" It's bad to do research now.

If no one ever thinks about anything and just continues going about their routines like good little worker drones then there's no worries about not having any freedom, about not even having privacy in your own mind. "I've got nothing to hide, so I'm okay with my entire life being visible to the authorities"
