The dollar is still strong if you look at the dollar index (DXY), which measures its strength against other currencies. It is also likely that the dollar will become even stronger when other currencies start to fail, eg. the euro, because the dollar is still seen as a "safe haven".

The US does have the problem that the interest payments on the debt by the government are now higher than even their exorbitant military budget. Though it's really a problem of wasting tax payer money and giving it to the bank owners, for whom it is not a problem at all.
 
Some more moves towards digital ID and population control rolling out. There is surveillance using on-board car navigation data, then the selling of that data to insurance companies, and penalizing or charging people more on their car insurance based on that data.


Here’s one for the conspiracy theorists. For once, they may be right.

The diligent reader will recall that last week, Western Standard columnist Linda Slobodian commented sympathetically on Jordan Peterson’s recent testimony to a US congressional sub-committee. The gist was that governments and corporate agents are colluding to “develop a picture not only of our actions, but of our thoughts and words, so that deviation from the desired end can be mapped, rewarded and punished.”

Cue eye-roll: 'Oh yes, there goes Peterson again, always sees the worst. Probably exaggerates.'

Well, not so fast.

If you have GM’s OnStar ‘Smart Driver’ software for example, you might want to be aware of all that it can do, so to speak...

Yes, if you’re upside down in a ditch a hundred miles from home, they’ll find you.

But, as my friend and colleague Shaun Polczer wrote at the weekend, GM’s OnStar ‘Smart Driver’ has also been surreptitiously funnelling data on drivers’ habits to third parties including insurers, which then use the information to jack up premiums. This realization comes after dozens of US drivers reported receiving exorbitant premium hikes without explanation or even knowing why.

Now, that single thing is not the end of liberty.

However, if the insurance companies can buy that data, so can any agency of government — or demand it.

In other words, here from daily life you have one small example of Peterson’s collusion of governments with corporate agents. If the government wants the data, GM (and the other car makers doing it) are happy to sell it.

It’s something of a niche example to be sure. But, it needs to be understood in the knowledge that for more than 10 years, the Digital ID and Authentication Council of Canada — DIACC — a Petersonian coalition of more than 100 governments and businesses established at the behest of the Government of Canada, has been cooperating to integrate personal, financial and legal information into a single digital identity.

So what are they going to do with that, when they have it?

DIACC includes Canada’s federal and provincial governments, federal agencies such as Canada Health Infoway, Visa, Mastercard, Interac, all the major banks and credit unions, the Canadian Real Estate Association and some foreign-owned entities — the Chinese-owned technology group Lenovo, for example, through its membership of DIACC’s affiliate, the FIDO Alliance.

In other words, these people are serious and an enormous amount of personal information on Canadian citizens has already been aggregated. The fact that the process is not complete, is no reason to deny that it’s happening or the implications of its ultimate completion. Many are good; the ones that aren't are what Peterson worries about.

Peterson then, and now perhaps members of the Smart Driver program. This much we can say about GM’s Smart Driver program… it is voluntary. (Or somewhat so, at least: see Motor Trend.)

And all the rest of it?

What do you think?
 
And here in Sweden...
("best in test" country, "Lala Land", you name it...)

the Digital currency (CBDC) moved another step forward, coming from the Swedish Centralbank (Riksbanken), the oldest in the World by the way, delivering it's 4th report in the exercise revolving CBDC (e-Krona) - and this will be the last report, they stated. That sounds like they are rather close to a general rollout for the digital CBDC e-Krona...

Speaking of the Swedish Riksbanken Central Bank - its affairs and speculations have been so incredibly bad, that they lost 80 (!) billion SEK (7.5 billion Dollars) last year. Which is neither spoken nor written about.

The e-krona pilot stage 4: offline payments with e-kronas

NEWS

The Riksbank's e-krona pilot is now releasing its fourth and final report, which analyses how an e-krona could work in practice if a decision is made to issue central bank digital money. In the report, the Riksbank has further investigated how an e-krona could be used offline for payments if electricity and telecommunications do not work. The Riksbank's work on the e-krona will continue in the future with a focus on design and preparations for the legislation that may be needed if an e-krona is introduced.

One of the starting points of the e-krona pilot has been that the e-krona should function as an additional payment alternative to contribute to robustness and increased preparedness. In the fourth stage, the Riksbank has therefore focused on testing and evaluating whether it is possible to design a secure, balance-based offline solution based on the conditions in the e-krona pilot's existing test environment.

The technical solution reserves e-krona for offline use in a so-called shadow wallet in the online system. The payment instrument in the form of a payment card records the balance of the shadow wallet and subsequent offline transactions. The actual e-kronas issued by the Riksbank never leave the online system and only change owners when the payment instruments are synchronised. The solution thus differs from the offline solution that the Riksbank tested in stage 2, which was token-based and instead meant that copies of the e-krona were moved to the payment instrument.

In the project, the Riksbank has tested transfers to and from payment cards, offline payments to shops and offline transfers between end users. To ensure that all offline payments are correctly registered in the online system, a robust and secure synchronisation mechanism was also developed and tested.

Many lessons can be learnt from Stage 4. The most important is that a secure and functional offline solution requires a lot of development work on technology, regulations and processes.

FACTS ABOUT THE E-KRONA PILOT

In 2020, the Riksbank initiated a pilot project to develop a proposal for a technical solution for a digital central bank currency, an e-krona, that can function as a complement to cash.

The aim of the pilot project has been to show in a test environment how an e-krona could be designed and function and be used by the general public. The aim has been for the Riksbank to increase knowledge of a central bank-issued digital krona. There is currently no decision on whether to issue an e-krona, what it would look like or what technology would be used.

Läkaruppropet via Telegram writes this:

"Sveriges Riksbank is preparing CBCD (Central Bank Digital Currency). In 2020, the Riksbank initiated a pilot project to develop a proposal for a technical solution for a central bank digital currency, an e-krona, which can function as a complement to cash.

The Riksbank is now reporting on stage 4 of its work. This is the final report and they say: "Many lessons can be learned from Stage 4. The most important is that a secure and functional offline solution requires a lot of development work on technology, regulations and processes."

So there are obstacles. But does this mean that the Riksbank is putting the CBDC on hold, or will it be introduced at all costs? And if introduced, how would it affect the rights and freedoms of Swedish citizens? Is this the beginning of a social control system, as they already have in Communist China? In China, for example, if a person has crossed the street at a red light a certain number of times, he or she will not be allowed to enter certain hotels or make certain trips."

The latest step forward of the "green" save the earth movement by the PTB minions:

Jojo Mehta co-founded Stop Ecocide in 2017, alongside barrister and legal pioneer the late Polly Higgins, to support the establishment of ecocide as a crime at the International Criminal Court.

As CEO and key spokesperson, she has overseen the remarkable growth of the movement while coordinating between legal developments, diplomatic traction and public narrative.

With representation and associate teams now in over 45 countries, Stop Ecocide International generates fertile collaborations at diplomatic and political level, as well as across civil society with lawyers, academics, corporate influencers, indigenous and faith leaders, NGOs and grassroots campaigns.

As a result, legal recognition of ecocide is emerging as a powerful driver of change and a key solution addressing the climate and ecological crisis.

My thesis is that the reset goes far beyond dollars and sense. The cosmic ramifications (pun intended) go far beyond our earthly material concerns. I also think the resets are way more often than every 309k years. And way more recent. The last 1600 years deserves far more scrutiny than its wiki “nothing to see here, we got it all figured out for you” narrative belies. (Another pun intended)

David DuByne has been given a sort of seal of approval by the C’s so that’s why I am posting this. It speaks to the anomalies of the past 500 years which go largely ignored. He analyzes a castle in Czech Republic with many historical photos and engravings and a look as it stands today. No firm conclusion is reached - it’s about questions. Questions that could be asked of the C’s.
