Global Digital ID has been Tested And will be Showcased to Policymakers

AlongID is a cross-border digital identity platform developed by international software company Deverium. The platform is currently in its early validation phase and will be showcased next week at GITEX Global, the world’s largest technology and AI exhibition, targeting policymakers and investors. AlongID is a global digital ID.

Digital ID: The Canary in the Coal Mine

As of September 1, 2025, Vietnam shut down more than 86 million bank accounts that were deemed inactive or non-compliant with the new biometric rules. Vietnam’s new banking system now requires mandatory biometric authentication for customer account validation, a move initiated by the State Bank of Vietnam. Without digital compliance, these people no longer have access to their own money. This Orwellian move is part of the central bank’s “cashless strategy”, aimed at combating identity theft, fraud, and AI-enabled scams. Moreover, the Vietnamese government has openly committed to eliminating cash entirely by 2030. [Read More]

The Climate Change Agenda is the Depopulation Agenda, Even Though No One Knows What the Global Population is

On Tuesday, The Guardian published an article that admits the climate agenda is the depopulation agenda. 

What is also notable is the article boldly claims the global human population is increasing by 200,000 people a day.  The world’s population is a guesstimate, so how can they know it is increasing by that number?  The truth is they don’t.

It simply isn’t possible to be sure exactly how many people there are on the Earth at any one time.  If it is uncertain how many people there are, it is even less certain by how many people the population is increasing, if indeed it is increasing.

The Guardian was publicising a report by a group of “experts” who had written a declaration of a ‘Warning of a Climate Emergency’ in 2020 for “scientists” worldwide to sign.  Their recent report was designed to solicit additional signatories.

How did The Guardian’s journalist miss that the “expert’s” report was merely activism? The article was written by a 20-year environmental reporting veteran who won this year’s press award for his “agenda-setting journalism on the climate crisis.”  He didn’t overlook the activism; he was helping to set the agenda.

China’s 10-Year Plan for AI Dystopia

Intelligent terminals and AI agents will be everywhere.

The Chinese State Council released its bold new plan: AI+. AI+ is a state-driven technology initiative that aims to transform every aspect of Chinese society with AI.

This ten-year plan pushes to embed AI in six strategic domains, and rather than one-off actions like investing in data centers, the goal is to fully integrate AI into society with a standardized development process, extensive education, and global cooperation with other countries. [Read More]

Electricity Costs Are Soaring and AI Will Make Matters Worse

Electricity demand for AI data centers is soaring. The result won’t be pretty.

The tech industry’s all-out artificial intelligence push is fueling soaring demand for electricity to run data centers that dot the landscape in Virginia, Ohio and other states. Large, rectangular buildings packed with servers consumed more than 4 percent of the nation’s electricity in 2023, and government analysts estimate that will increase to as much as 12 percent in just three years. That’s partly because computers training and running A.I. systems consume far more energy than machines that stream Netflix or TikTok. [Read More]

The AI Danger Approaching by ShepherdFarmerGeek

It was amazing to see St. Funogas’ article today (8/22/25) entitled “My Concerns With Artificial Intelligence.” Hopefully my thoughts below will add to his insights! Great minds think alike! 

I deny being a Luddite, but I must confess I’m concerned about the rapidly growing utilization of A.I. in our lives. It’s kind of shocking how many devices are connecting to some A.I. flavor or the other, and I suppose – eventually – just one or two super-A.I.s, directly or indirectly. Smartphones (for all their utility, essentially a government eavesdropping device), home security systems, Alexa, cars, and even computers/laptops are coming pre-wired (as it were) with A.I. “for our convenience”!

A 2025 Assessment: The Emerging Artificial Intelligence Threat

The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) has been alarmingly rapid since 2022. Before then, AI was considered little more than a plaything or a novelty.  But now it is transforming businesses, wiping out entire categories of office jobs, and threatening human liberty. The first practical release of the Claude AI code-writing tool just by itself has completely transformed the global software industry. I’m talking about a Buggy Whips level of industry transformation. As a personal illustration, I should mention that my youngest son is now in his third year at a university here in The American Redoubt, studying for a degree in computer science. His prospects for finding a job when he graduates in 2027 have dropped dramatically since his freshman year. I’m now advising him to pursue a career in software design rather than programming. Otherwise, he’ll be another buggy whip maker. [Read More]
