John Roskam from the Institute of Public Affairs highlights the failures of the fourth estate to hold our politicians (and other institutions) to account.
If you are worried about the privacy aspects of covid passports, imagine if you needed a 'digital citizenship' to use the Internet!
Don't start laughing quite yet because that's what some of the global elites want to see.
The World Economic Forum (WEF), recently held a live video stream with some tech security experts in which they openly discussed the creation of such an Internet passport.
They referred to it as digital citizenship and apparently it is all about avoiding a digital pandemic.
If such a proposal were to proceed, it would effectively track everything you do on the internet and associate it with your digital ID. Naturally this could (and would) be used against you.
It'd be like cancel culture of super steroids!
Of course this is all being dressed up as being for your benefit. The WEF website states:
"User-centric digital identities are the base of trusted digital interactions and access to digital services, enabling personalization, customer loyalty, increased security and reduced costs.
Innovative customer services are possible: telemedicine and digital prescriptions, gig economy, more fluid workforce, digital banking via devices in the internet of things (IoT), digital transformation of supply chains and the provision of government services."
The skipped the bit about tracking your every move.
Here's part of the livestream.
Watch around the 24 minute mark. The idea of being a better digital citizen is floated.
Cory Bernardi is the author of seven books and has been a member of the Australian rowing team, a publican, an investment portfolio manager and spent nearly 14 years as an Australian Senator.
Australia is being let down by a government that doesn't know what to do or how to do it. The pressure of underperformance is starting to show and we are all paying the price.
The Prime Minister has a delicate balancing act ahead of him. He needs to muscle up to China while re-establishing important trade markets for our products.
