“Buy with your eyes, pay with your glance!”After running pilot tests in Brazil and parts of the Asia Pacific for roughly two years, Mastercard is finally rolling out its biometric retail payments system in Europe. The world’s largest payment card company appears to be determined to wean consumers off not only cash, its eternal rival, but also credit and debit cards, its main line of business until now. To that end, it is piloting its Biometric Checkout Program in Poland in collaboration with local fintech company PayEye, which will be providing its iris and face biometric technology.
No doubt an interesting technology. Do we want it? Do we need it?
A person with a thick wallet will likely think this development is great, easy and practical, no need to carry around any card or phone or any other payment methods. People who are struggling with budgeting and having expenditure control, we know that using cards remove the sense of spending "pain" and it removes the ability to easily calculate the money use (with cash you literally see how much you have and what leaves you and what you have left). Going biometric payment wipes out that tiny inconvenience of a card or phone pay, I'd say making you blind to your expenditure (except, of course, in hindsight when the account has to be balanced). Sometimes things should not be convenient but hard. Even, or perhaps definitely, when it comes to micro payment, the one Euro here and two Euros there, it all sum up pretty quickly to a large sum. Eye/biometric payment will make this transaction so easy and tempting that one can quickly loose control.

I saw this. It was the first prophecy I received, and it is the most vile scenario of them all. Those orbs get renamed "brainballs" after a war in which nanobots are released to render all biological material into fuel for war robots in a region, and they begin to reproduce, resulting in a "gray goo" scenario. Only a relative handful of living creatures remain, protected by a daily treatment of pills called "The Quicksilver Cure" after their inventor, who claimed to be the living embodiment of Hermes. The pills are distributed once a day in a group meeting that is a mix of political debate and religious service, and the brainballs are used as prisons for anyone who violates the rules or standards of the commune. Because biological material is scarce, the balls (orbs) swap consciousness with the current body owner, and the entire system is based on something I guess you could call "social credit," which was really just incentivizing people to accuse others of things to stay out of the brainballs.

DARKJOURNALIST BREAKTHROUGH INTERVIEW WITH FORMER ASST. HUD SECRETARY CATHERINE AUSTIN FITTS: CDBC BIOMETRIC CONTROL GRID
#DIGITAL #CONCENTRATION CAMP: CBDC
"Former Assistant HUD Secretary Catherine Austin Fitts returns for a deep discussion with Dark Journalist Daniel Liszt and reveals how the Central Bankers have implemented a Worldwide surveillance and financial transaction infrastructure to harvest humanity physically, economically and spiritually. Catherine has been warning on the development of the Central Bank Digital Currency and its implications for loss of freedom. Today she'll go deep on how the crash of #FTX is an op designed at the top of the #money #pyramid to bring in the new #system."

If #Oil prices go up, #fuel prices go up & commodity prices go up as both oil & oil-derived fuel are a component of all #commodities that are plastic or transported.
The typical response to #inflation is to increase #interest rates, which if done will result in increased #government #deficits, higher #taxes & combined with monetary inflation & #commodity price increases will force vast numbers of people into #privation.
These are #engineered geoeconomic conditions being used to deliberately #collapse economies as a pretext for a pan-Western, central #bank digital #currency, #biometric ID, #tracking, social credit system, ushered in via manufactured #consent, through a propagandized faux #Hegelian dialectic using applied #psychology.

"Similar to Big Tech, #BigID refers to the market of actors selling and profiting from digital identification systems and infrastructure. These systems often involve #biometric data collection and aim to replace or complement government ID systems." https://www.accessnow.org/busting-big-ids-myths/
