RE: Singapore Looks To Build Dream Smart City With Eyes On Every Lamp Post

in #technology6 years ago

That's the key. People really have to stop adopting the latest gadget just because it's new. The best way for systems like 5G for example, to not come to fruition is to not buy smart devices. The system requires everything to be chipped, so hold out as long as you can. I've never had a smartphone and still to this day see no reason in having one. I will never buy anything that can be connected to a grid. More people simply need to just not buy these devices. It's very hard for many because they are addicted to them, but the alternative will be the worst of the worst human beings wanting and having the ability to control humans like never before.

Fantastic points. I avoid networked anything ('smart' devices)at this point. I keep contemplating how to remove the smartphone from my life, though it becomes a little challenging from just a basic communication point of view (with the family). Will keep exploring practical measure dial it back. I've removed FB (8 yrs ago actually), amazon, and am in the process of removing google too. Small steps, eventually have a nice, comfy, limited relationship with the tech behemoths.
