    Default The product online is not the content. The product online is you! (18 March 2018, YouTube Channel Nicholson1968)

    What is going on right now in the world, with people and children are becoming more and more addicted to their precious tech gadget screens than anything else?



    What give´s me goosebumps is the "prediction" of our society made by Lewis Mumford back in the late 50's or eraly 60's.

    Just listen to his words (1.46 in the film) commenting B.F Skinners book "Walden TWO"
    Anyone read it?, I'd love to know ?
    I can´t agree more than Lewis Mumford´s words 1.46 in the film) commenting B.F Skinners book "Walden TWO" That instead of using the whip, make people think they enjoy what they´re doing with suger coating it. The most dangerous system of compulsion, making us think we are in heaven when we are actually in hell.


    They first tryed it out on animals then ...

    The compararison with the dove hiting a red dot with it's beak to get a dopamin reward every 1 try out of 10. Wtf ?
    Thats we clicking on our devises today! (And if you watch closely, there is a pidgeon in a cage with a sign "turn around",and the pidgeon doe's that as well! and get's it's reward )

    Instead of using the whip old time way, make people think they enjoy what they're/we're doing, suger coating it. The most dangerous system of slavery is making us think we are in heaven when we are actually in hell.

    What a wonderful video that to me, rang so true. Im a musician and I watch people come to "watch" me play and I ask them all to turn the phones off, and do they?, no they don't. Its an addiction that is killing my modality of work and thats really sad. I rode a train into Sydney the other day and EVERYONE on the train in my compartment was heads down with their phones out like mindless zombies. No one was talking to each other, no one was looking out the windows, no one was reading a book because I got up and walked down the isle checking for my own personal curiosity. Everyone was glued to their phones oblivious of who was sitting next to them, ignoring their neighbour, from appearances trapped inside their own little information bubble tailor made by computer soft ware geniuses to constantly appeal to your nervous system and tastes.

    TURN YOUR PHONE OFF !
    TURN YOUR COMPUTER OFF !
    TURN THE TV OFF !
    TURN YOUR RADIO OFF !

    GO FOR A WALK !!
    GO FOR A SWIM !!
    GO TO THE PLAYGROUND WITH YOUR KIDS WITHOUT YOUR PHONE !!
    SIT QUIETLY AND BREATHE
    SIT QUIETLY AND READ A GOOD BOOK
    DO SOME YOGA
    GET IN TOUCH WITH YOUR HEALTH AND BODY
    GO OUT AND DRIVE TO A FOREST AND SIT QUIETLY

    I DOUBLE DARE YOU !!!

    This may be the change that your life needs to come back from the edge of the screens that dictate your to life as it stands now.
    My TV blew up and for 4 months I didn't have one . Its amazing. My blood pressure went down, I became more active ....and creative. It was a relief not a punishment.
    Timothy Leary in 1966 said "Turn on, tune in, drop out" well I think now we can add another request given the electronic climate and that is "TURN OFF" all electronic devices and just stand in your own skin and consciousness, so if you can do this for a day or a week and see how you feel afterwards.
    faithfully G.

    I myself watch cable TV daily for entertainment and information. There are interesting episodes of Ancient Aliens on History Channel for several years now, including AI and technology hooking humans to their devices. I always try to limit my time on the internet on my laptop since humans are addicted to them. I also wear my dependable Biowill scalar energy pendant for several hours daily to counter the effects of EMFs from devices which I cannot avoid. I was given this pendant a few years ago and it has enhanced my health to my benefit.

    This excellent video is actually called Stare into the Lights, My Pretties.

    Here:
    ~~~
    Posted by Alexandra Bruce last week:
    Stare into the Lights My Pretties

    We live in a world of screens. The average adult spends the majority of their waking hours in front of some sort of screen or device. We’re enthralled, we’re addicted to these machines. How did we get here? Who benefits? What are the cumulative impacts on people, society and the environment? What may come next if this culture is left unchecked, to its end trajectory, and is that what we want?

    Stare into the Lights My Pretties investigates these questions with an urge to return to the real physical world, to form a critical view of technological escalation driven by rapacious and pervasive corporate interest.

    Covering themes of addiction, privacy, surveillance, information manipulation, behavior modification and social control, the film lays the foundations as to why we may feel like we’re sleeprunning into some dystopian nightmare with the machines at the helm. Because we are, if we don’t seriously avert our eyes to stop this culture from destroying what is left of the real world.

    This film was made with no budget, is not-for-profit and is released to the world for free for the purposes of critical discourse, education, and for cultivating radical social and political change.

    I agree with every premise in the documentary. For those who haven't seen this, I'd suggest it's almost mandatory.

    Many, many of us have become addicts.

    Some of that was accidental and unplanned at first. But now the marketeers and psychologists understand this really well, and they're pulling our strings to manipulate us, every day, and every which way they can.

    I do not think it ever was accidental Bill, none of it, which is also expressed in the video by one of the founders of Facebook: we all knew it was addictive and we did it nevertheless (paraphrasing here)

    I have studied behavioral psychology almost 40 years ago and I studied B.F. Skinner in details, replicating some of his experiments with rats and mice.

    Then we studied the neurological system of coackroaches. Scientists were already trying to pair the neurological impact of reinforcement way back.

    And then, in the industrial psych classes, we would see how to apply reinforcement in management situations.

    And add to this an experience on hypnosis while handling our lab rats.

    No doubt that the cabal has done it consciously including the moral less quite narcissistic kids that started facebook and twitter and amazon. The perpetuation of Bernays and Skinner.

    Because you also had, a bit before and continuing during Skinner, the marketing strategies of Bernays (another side of the same science) which were widely applied by the Cabal and very successful.

    Add MK Ultra conditionning studies, there is no doubt that it was totally planned, the addictive internet tools. They could have been designed not to lead to addiction, there is no reason for their actual design, except addiction.

    ---------

    I had not seen the video, so I thank the OP. My question is how to get my daughter to listen to it for 2 hours, because she think I am paranoi for my passwords (imagine the rest, how naive she is) and I told her this was nothing. It was in fact quite worst. lol

    Yes. Nancy Colier also talks about screens in strollers for babies — on Coast to Coast AM (25 Jan 2017). She expresses her horror, and radio show host George Noory can barely believe it.

    “And experts are even learning that children spending all their time on these kinds of devices are showing a startling lack of ability not only to read other people's emotions but a lack of being able to show empathy.”

    “A new study out of the University of California Irvine says devoting more attention to your smartphones than your children could mean they'll have improper brain development and emotional disorders later in life.”




    Transcript:
    “…London say that three-quarters of all UK toddlers that's children between the age of 6 months and 3 years old now use iPads or smartphones every day. 6 month olds use iPads every day. I mean just that's what's going on. And I don’t know how many times I've personally seen this but we'll be sitting down to dinner at a restaurant and a mother will come in plunk her small kid down and immediately prop up an iPad right in front of his face and then pull out her phone. They don't talk to each other. They don't look at each other. If the kid tries to get his mom's attention maybe show her something happening in the cartoon or whatever that she's turned on to distract him she won't even look because she's too concerned with checking Instagram or whatever on her phone to even give her own kid the time of day. Parents are admittedly ignoring their children and the children are learning to ignore everyone else because of it.

    And studies are showing that smartphone addicted parents have more negative interactions with their children when they do interact with their children but is all about having physical consequences too. A new study out of the University of California Irvine says devoting more attention to your smartphones than your children could mean they'll have improper brain development and emotional disorders later in life. And that’s certainly what's being suggested by the fact that social skills have now eroded to the point that college students are having to take etiquette classes to try and relearn even the basics on how to physically interact with people in real life. And experts are even learning that children spending all their time on these kinds of devices are showing a startling lack of ability not only to read other people's emotions but a lack of being able to show empathy.

    What is going on right now in the world, with people and children are becoming more and more addicted to their precious tech gadget screens than anything else?


    This truly is a remarkable film. Thoughtfully, intelligently and maturely put together. Excellent indeed. This was a terrific 2 hours spent yesterday viewing this.

    Although these concepts weren't new to me at all it was lovely - in the most ironic sense of course - seeing them sewn together this way, and, a sobering reminder of how very important it is to be, at the very least, aware of how pervasive and seductive these technologies are. To each their own in how, if at all, they may wish to engage or disengage as technocracy takes over the world.

    I'm including below a blog post received today from Jon Rappoport's 'No More Fake News' - it helps to reinforce some of the issues raised in this extraordinary piece of film.

    The following extract also helps to reinforce what is fast becoming one of the key issues or battles being waged, largely unrealised by the masses, namely, the battle for your continued use and dependency on a type of energy and its way to monetize you. It also helps reinforce the thrust of the thread title. (Tintin Q)

    The Internet of Things: a game for morons and control freaks
    by Jon Rappoport March 26th 2018

    --- A vast cotton candy dream comes to life. O hail the glorious future! Your home will be automatic. It will run by itself. Push a button. Nothing else is required ---

    Planet-wide, all-encompassing, interconnected, automated, regulated, the Internet of Things is the system of systems being brought online by the emerging 5G wireless transmission apparatus.

    In a previous article, I covered the health dangers of 5G. Here I analyze the technocratic wet dream come to life.

    On the scale of the individual and the family, your home would be filled with devices connected to the Internet. Washers, dryers, heaters, air conditioners, refrigerators, toasters, stoves, television sets, security systems, cars, etc. At the first level, the devices would all record (spy on) your interactions with them and observe your energy use.

    You, king in your castle, would be able to tap a control key that sets all the devices in motion. Rather quickly, as upgrades are entered automatically, you would discover that you can’t turn off your home grid. It’s there, and it will stay there.

    At the second level, through a collaboration of corporations and governments, Technocrats and their algorithms will determine how much energy you can use. That means quotas. At first, and for a time, if you want to exceed your quota, you’ll be able to pay for more energy. At some point in the future, this won’t be allowed. Your energy will be remotely regulated; your ongoing use of devices will be “browned out,” as necessary, to comport with your quota. Some of these brown-outs will be quite severe.

    The political basis for this arrangement? “The dangerous humans” must lower energy use, to combat (pseudoscientific) climate change and save the planet from frying.

    And “in the interests of social justice, we must provide more energy to those who live in poverty all over the world.” Except it will turn out that those downtrodden people aren’t getting much more energy. That was a con.

    5G, the Internet of Things, smart meters, the Smart Grid, and Sustainability are all a way of exercising CONTROL, top-down, through energy allotments.

    Think about it. What person living his life really needs all his devices connected, monitored, regulated, automated? Trillions of dollars must be spent to make this happen.

    You can’t get along with your devices operating as they are now?

    And when every car on every road in the world is driverless and connected to the Smart Grid, taking people to their destinations at programmed speeds, along routes that are, moment to moment, deemed to “contribute to optimum overall traffic patterns,” making you a passive rider, what do you think will eventually happen?

    Fewer and fewer cars, more and more public transport buses and trains and shuttles. Cars are inefficient. To lower energy use, they must be phased out. So say the Technocrats.

    The major reason given for the shift to 5G? The current system, 4G, doesn’t have enough bandwith to accommodate all the devices that are coming online.

    Well, here is an obvious solution. Don’t connect 100 billion new devices to the Internet. Scrap the whole Smart Grid. That should do it.

    People don’t need their washing machines to: keep track of how much soap is on hand and order a new supply. People don’t need their toasters to decide how brown the bread will be. People don’t need driverless cars.

    The need is at the top. Oligarchs and Technocrats need to control and dole out energy so they can rule the global population through allotments and quotas. That’s their whole game.

    THAT’S WHAT’S GOING ON HERE.

    The carrot is: “Your fridge will know every item of food on its shelves and order new items when necessary.”

    The stick is: “You are a unit consuming energy, and the amount you’re given by your masters will be decided from Central Command. Don’t object. Don’t rebel. Don’t disturb the New World Order. All your devices are gathering information on you. If you are labeled Dangerous, then yes, we’ll cut you off from energy.”

    But they love you.
    They really do.
    They’re making a more just and fair world.
    Love them back.

    There has to be something wrong with a person's brain to begin with or they would see and reject this kind of insanity and lack of humanity. I remember hearing a story about a baby who had a magazine in front of it and it kept trying to tap the photos on the cover, like it was a screen. It's horrifying.

    Horrifying and dehumanising in equal measure Valerie.

    Here's a little more from a Jon Rappoport blog post received today that I've extracted from, and comments that are very relevant to, at least, the energy component underpinning these technics. One would be hard pushed not to concur with the thrust of this.

    Steven Aftergood is specifically addressing the secrecy behind invention suppression as it affects the granting of patents. Where emphases are noted, these are Jon's and not mine. Steven's narrative is in indigo, to distinguish it within the body text.

    (Tintin Q)

    He quotes from FAS (Federation of American Scientists), Secrecy News, Oct. 21, 2010, “Invention Secrecy Still Going Strong,” by Steven Aftergood:

    “The current list of technology areas that is used to screen patent applications for possible restriction under the Invention Secrecy Act is not publicly available and has been denied under the Freedom of Information Act. (An appeal is pending.)…”

    “Most of the listed technology areas are closely related to military applications. But some of them range more widely.”

    “Thus, the 1971 list indicates that patents for solar photovoltaic generators were subject to review and possible restriction IF THE PHOTOVOLTAICS WERE MORE THAN 20% EFFICIENT. Energy conversion systems were likewise subject to review and possible restriction IF THEY OFFERED CONVERSION EFFICIENCIES ‘IN EXCESS OF 70-80%’.” (Emphasis is mine.)


    “One may fairly ask if disclosure of such technologies could really have been ‘detrimental to the national security,’ or whether the opposite would be closer to the truth. One may further ask what comparable advances in technology may be subject to restriction and non-disclosure today. But no answers are forthcoming, and the invention secrecy system persists with no discernible external review.”

    And you can see that breakthrough energy tech, which would radically lessen the need for oil, would be on the secrecy-do-not-release list.

    What else is on the list? Old Tesla patents, for example?

    The US Patent Office is an official chokepoint for the “planned society”---or should we say the “restricted society.”

    But this is not to say advanced technology is always shelved or scuttled. The patent applications, in suspended animation at the US Patent Office, can be quietly disclosed, for example, to government researchers engaged in black-budget projects, where the data and the research are turned to “other uses.”

    On the other hand, if a giant corporation has an invention that deploys the genetic engineering of food crops, and adds millions of tons of toxic pesticides to the environment, its patent application sails through review at the Patent Office.

    Yes, we always come back to the psychopaths. And guess what: as seen in previous posts, infants plugged in front of a screen do not learn to read non verbal language and do not develop normal empathy.

    In fact they are emotionally abandoned at an early age which provokes narcissism, as described in child psychology studies

    This is psychopathy / sociopathy development almost in series in a production Chain. And we know the results while observing the cabal.

    And to further compound some of these issues, another terrific blog entry from Jon Rappoport re-emphasising the dangers of 5G.

    A question is: will we be globally motivated enough to switch-off, and step away from the grid, or are we indeed in captivity now and so in thrall to it to the point that we cannot extricate ourselves?

    I rather fear the latter.

    Added: here's the link to electricsense.com (Tintin Q)

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    5G: Harmful effects of a new technology

    * See "5G Radiation Dangers---11 Reasons To Be Concerned," by Lloyd Burrell, at electricsense [dot] com. Well worth a read.

    * Of course, read Patrick Wood's instant classic, Technocracy Rising, which explains the hidden agenda of Globalism in the 21st century.

    "Along with the 5G there is another thing coming -- Internet of Things. If you look at it...the radiation level is going to increase tremendously and yet the industry is very excited about it... they project 5G/IoT business to be a $7 trillion business." -- Prof. Girish Kumar, Professor at Electrical Engineering Department at IIT Bombay

    5G, the latest and greatest method of faster wireless transmission, is coming on with a storm.

    Governments are promoting it as if the future of humanity depends on it. It MUST BE implemented.

    When governments and corporations see technological daylight up the road---and big money---they run toward it joined at the hip. Consequences be damned.

    And now, 5G.

    A few of the many corporations involved include Samsung, Intel, Qualcomm, Nokia, Huawei, Ericsson, ZTE. This is a global operation, and many governments are backing the push.

    And the consumer gets what? The ability to watch the reruns of Law&Order he's already watching? His current TV reception isn't good enough? The appliances in his home will all be connected to Internet and talk to each other and spy on him and record his energy use, in conjunction with smart meters, for the Greater Good.

    Somehow, you really need your toaster connected to the Internet? You want that? You can't get along without that?

    UNDOUBTEDLY, A KEY PART OF THE 5G PROGRAM IS, EVENTUALLY, MASSIVE NUMBERS OF DRIVERLESS CARS ON ROADS ALL OVER THE WORLD. This is the plan. Cars are connected and talk to each other. Humans play no role in this. The Technocratic Internet of Things decides how, at any given moment, to regulate traffic flows. Humans learn to be passive.

    AND WITH THE INTERNET OF THINGS, THE TECHNOCRATIC ELITE WILL BE ABLE TO INSTALL ENERGY-USE QUOTAS AND CEILINGS FOR EVERY PERSON AND EXERT TOP-DOWN CONTROL ON THE PLANET.

    "Mr. Jones, this is the voice of your house speaking. You have reached the assigned limit of your energy use for the month. Try to get along without energy until next month's allotment comes online..."

    At electricsense [dot] com (5/12/17), we learn about the purported "upside" of 5G:

    "5G and IoT [Internet of Things] promises to connect us in our homes, schools, workplaces, cities, parks and open spaces to over a trillion objects around the world. It promises cars that drive themselves, washing machines that order their own washing powder and softener plus of course super fast downloads and streaming."

    "According to Fortune.com 5G will support at least 100 billion devices and will be 10 to 100 times faster than current 4G technology. (4G was already about 10 times faster than 3G)."

    "It'll bring download speed up to 10 Gigabits per second. This would let us have an entire building of people send each other data in close to no time, thus improving productivity."

    Now, electricsense [dot] com takes us into the disaster of 5G:

    "5G will utilize smaller cell stations (and the technology of beamforming) that'll scramble/unscramble and redirect packets of data on a no-interference path back to us. This could mean wireless antennas on every lamp post, utility pole, home and business throughout entire neighborhoods, towns and cities."

    "Thousands of studies link low-level wireless radio frequency radiation exposures to a long list of adverse biological effects, including:

    * DNA single and double strand breaks

    * oxidative damage

    * disruption of cell metabolism

    * increased blood brain barrier permeability

    * melatonin reduction

    * disruption to brain glucose metabolism

    * generation of stress proteins"

    "Given that 5G is set to utilize frequencies above and below existing frequency bands 5G sits in the middle of all this. But the tendency (it varies from country to country) is for 5G to utilize the higher frequency bands. Which brings its own particular concerns..."

    "The biggest concern is how these new wavelengths will affect the skin. The human body has between two million to four million sweat ducts. Dr. Ben-Ishai of Hebrew University, Israel explains that our sweat ducts act like 'an array of helical antennas when exposed to these wavelengths,' meaning that we become more conductive. A recent New York study which experimented with 60GHz waves stated that 'the analyses of penetration depth show that more than 90% of the transmitted power is absorbed in the epidermis and dermis layer'."

    "The effects of MMWs [millimeter waves] as studied by Dr. Yael Stein of Hebrew University is said to also cause humans physical pain as our nociceptors flare up in recognition of the wave as a damaging stimuli. So we're looking at possibilities of many skin diseases and cancer as well as physical pain to our skin."

    "A 1994 study found that low level millimeter microwave radiation produced lens opacity in rats, which is linked to the production of cataracts."

    "An experiment conducted by the Medical Research Institute of Kanazawa Medical University found that 60GHz 'millimeter-wave antennas can cause thermal injuries of varying types of levels. The thermal effects induced by millimeterwaves can apparently penetrate below the surface of the eye'."

    "A 1992 Russian study found that frequencies in the range 53-78GHz (that which 5G proposes to use) impacted the heart rate variability (an indicator of stress) in rats. Another Russian study on frogs whose skin was exposed to MMWs found heart rate changes (arrhythmias)."

    "5G will use pulsed millimeter waves to carry information. But as Dr. Joel Moskowitz points out, most 5G studies are misleading because they do not pulse the waves. This is important because research on microwaves already tells us how pulsed waves have more profound biological effects on our body compared to non-pulsed waves. Previous studies, for instance, show how pulse rates of the frequencies led to gene toxicity and DNA strand breaks."

    This is just a sampling of 5G's disastrous effects. There is much more.

    "AT&T have announced the availability of their 5G Evolution in Austin, Texas. 5G Evolution allows Samsung S8 and S8 + users access to faster speeds. This is part of AT&T's plan to lay the 5G foundation while the standards are being finalized. This is expected to happen in late 2018. AT&T has eyes on 19 other metropolitan areas such as Chicago, Los Angeles, Boston, Atlanta, San Francisco and so on. Indianapolis is up next on their 5G trail due to arrive in the summer [2018]."

    It's full steam ahead for 5G on planet Earth.

    Profits, top-down control, new technology---why bother with extensive health studies?

    Once the effects on the population take hold, doctors will make diagnoses of DISEASES that seem to have nothing to do with 5G. They'll call it Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, or a variety of blood disorders, they'll look for THE VIRUS, and they'll develop new drugs...

    Information is power. Our own power is exponential. We just have to keep going, with enormous odds both for and against us. May humanity prevail.
