While Amazon seeks to obsolete human labor in its distribution business, its next target is delivery of those packages and the establishment of a massive network of ‘independent’ businesses. Is there any money in driving? Just ask an Uber or Lyft driver!

Threat analysis and decisions will be made autonomously using AI, notifying border patrol agents; however, this is a slippery slope that could all too easily be inducted into broad law enforcement practices.

Technocracy News & Trends for Thursday, May 9, 2019
With lack of regulations and legislation, ubiquitous surveillance is way beyond simple biometric identification and is now focussing on behaviors, including pre-crime analysis. Facial expressions, eye movements, gate, respiration, etc., are fed to AI algorithms to sense mood, personality and emotions.

Toronto is learning the hard way about Public-Private Partnerships with the likes of Google-linked Sidewalk Labs. Smart City construction in its Quayside district is costly compared to traditional urban design, and data privacy is still an open sieve.
Smart City designers are not urban planners by any means, and are copying failed designs from over 50 years ago. Their Utopia will fail again, just as certainly as it did by 1960.

Technocracy has teeth when you don’t agree with its phony science. Big Pharma has driven this vaccine hysteria from day one, turning it into a belief system devoid of facts. In 2015, Al Gore proposed to “punish climate-change deniers”.

Technocracy News & Trends for Monday, May 6, 2019
Admittedly, Technocracy and Communism have some surface commonalities. For instance, they both manifest collectivism and both are autocratic as far as subjects are concerned. Technocracy is far worse, however, because it will result in a dystopian Scientific Dictatorship from which there is no escape.

Technocracy News & Trends for Friday, May 3, 2019
Technocracy’s dream is to perfect the global supply chain by streamlining infrastructure. To that end, this deal is highly suspicious. Sec’y. of Transportation Elaine Chao’s father James sits on the board of directors of China State Shipbuilding Corporation and her sister Angela is a board member of Bank of China. The conflict of interest is beyond the pale, even as Trump makes this $2 trillion deal with his supposed arch-enemy and antagonist Charles Schumer who serves as Senate Majority Leader.
Don’t expect the pothole in front of your house to be fixed. The focus will be on cross-border trade and a tsunami of Public-Private Partnerships that give control of our infrastructure to global corporations.

Technocracy's big surveillance weapon in China is intensely focused on the Islamic province of Xinjiang, where every conceivable action, event, location is recorded and analyzed. Thus, Technocracy is demonstrated to oppress. If it can oppress one people group, it can oppress any other group as well.

Whether 'Rapid DNA' testing, warrantless search of phones and laptops or law enforcement's use of facial recognition software, our own government is rapidly breaking down the barriers surrounding the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. If not reversed, this will lead to Scientific Dictatorship, aka Technocracy.
