Unless we collectively decline to participate in this new social experiment, digital IDs—tied to private demographic, financial, location, movement, and biometric data—will become The New Abnormal.
Dr. K, I truly appreciate you continuing to sound the alarm and doing what you can to push awareness. When considering how the tech giants have already made huge progress with Gens X-Z (Apple Face ID, Facebook, Meta’s Oculus, XBox and Sony game systems, etc.), I can’t imagine how we reverse course. Aside from ridding ourselves and families of the tech devices that we’ve come to believe are so necessary to daily life what are our options?
Minimize screen time as much as possible, especially for your children. That's a good start. Absolutely don't allow them to use TikTok, which is not only digital crack cocaine for the brain, but also a data gathering mechanism for the Chinese (they have a different version of TikTok for their own citizens).
Whoa ! You filled in a LOT of
Blanks for me Must read your book !!

Cant wait to get my copy of the book today.
Excellent summation of what appears to be our future. Sad....
Any idea whether Real ID, that the US is trying to require, is something that we should just avoid? And use our Passports instead?
This was both disturbing and enlightening. Thank you for shining a bright light on corners largely out of the peripherals.
