Welcome To Black Mirror: Pre-Crime AI, Shock Gloves, and Robot Dogs

We live in a world where much of our popular media is, to some extent, an extension of a pervasive propaganda apparatus rife with subliminal messages and predictive programming, inundating the populace with subconscious sensory overload effective for sedating the citizenry all too keen to live vicariously through the stories of fictional heroes fighting tyranny and oppression while doing nothing to emulate those actions in the real world.

The Fast-Approaching Digital Control Grid - A Checklist of Trump Administration Actions to Date

A digital control grid is an electronic network of digital telecommunication and information systems that allows individuals to be surveilled, tracked, and made subject to invasive controls applied to their financial transactions and resource use (such as electricity, food, water, transportation) - compromising, if not ending, all human rights and liberties. Control grids operate with significant data collection and AI to apply social credit systems that can be dictated on a highly centralised basis. A digital control grid ends financial freedom, replacing markets with technocracy - a system run by rules created and maintained centrally by “experts.”

Is the Trump Administration building a digital control grid? We provide the following checklist to assess the steps the Administration is (and is not) taking in a variety of areas to facilitate a rapid control grid build-out. [Read More]

They are Planning a Complete Financial Lockdown - Whitney Webb


One blink, and your identity unlocks a programmable wallet. That’s the latest message from writer and journalist Whitney Webb.

Governments and global institutions are standardising digital IDs built on biometrics, then wiring those IDs to your money. In this model, your face, fingerprints, or iris confirm every transaction and gate access to basic services.

The stated goal is inclusion through Know Your Customer or KYC rules and safer payments. The design also concentrates power, since the same ID can switch your wallet on or off. But it doesn’t end there. The next phase links identity, wallets, and policy in one infrastructure.

Make sure to stick around until the end of the video as Whitney Webb maps how digital IDs and central bank rails converge, and why that matters for your day-to-day freedom.

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]
