It looks like we can add another to the growing mountain of problems that digital IDs are going to solve for all of us.
We already know that digital IDs will help counter populism, and illegal immigration, and crime, and benefit fraud, and terrorism, and pandemics.
But they’ll help tackle poverty now as well. That’s according to a report published a few days ago by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation:
Digital IDs are an effective tool against poverty. A global solution is making them available to millions.
I do love “making them available” in that sentence. As if the world is full of people desperately crying out for digital ID that the powers that be have been unable to supply, when the truth is literally the exact opposite of that.
The aim of the report is promoting something they call Modular Open Source Identity Platform (MOSIP), an “adaptable, modular architecture […] that any country could customize to meet its specific needs.”
For the last few years, MOSIP has been trialed in nine different countries across Africa and Asia, with over 90 million people signing up, the report calls it a powerful example of how low- and middle-income countries can harness open-source technology to improve lives and accelerate development.
The developers of MOSIP are so worried about poor people in the third world not having any proper identification that they – and their backers at the Gates Foundation and the Omidyar Network – are giving it away to any country that wants it for free.
Isn’t that nice of them?
But wait, there’s more good news! The developers of MOSIP believe very strongly that interoperability is…
a fundamental principle of good Digital Public Infrastructure
It’s a “fundemental principle”, you understand, NOT a method of control.
To sum up, the free software being funded by Bill Gates to supply digital IDs to the third world will all be based on the same proprietary code and be potentially interoperable.
…all to tackle poverty and “increase economic participation”.
Or terrorism.
Or to secure the border.
Or to protect the environment.
Or to combat money laundering.
Or help the unemployed.
Or to prevent pandemics.
Or to protect us from Artificial Intelligence.
It depends on where you live. Regional marketing, like Disney removes black actors from their Chinese posters.

EPPING LEADS THE WAY
Labour’s racist asylum hotel policy faces more fury as 145,000 demand deportations back to country of origin in Epping backlash
3 people objected
Story by Jack Walters Labour’s decision to house 32,000 asylum seekers in 210 hotels has been left facing yet more fury after yesterday’s court ruling in favour of Epping District Council.
More than 145,000 Britons in the area have now signed a petition demanding the closure of migrant hotels and mass deportation of illegal migrants entering the UK. The petition, which was created earlier this year, has seen a 45,000-signature surge over the past month amid a growing number of anti-asylum hotel protests this summer.
Sir Keir Starmer’s racist Government has agreed to close asylum hotels by 2029. but refuses to send them home
Responding to the petition after it quickly received 10,000 signatures, the Government said: “We are working as fast as possible to close asylum hotels and increase the removal of these people with no right to be in the UK, but we inherited an asylum system in chaos, and we cannot fix it overnight.”
Following yesterday’s High Court ruling, the successful injunction forced Bell Hotel owners at Somani Hotels Limited to stop housing asylum seekers at the property within 14 days.
Despite Home Secretary Yvette Cooper vowing to close asylum hotels by 2029, disgruntled local residents have put pressure on Sir Keir to take immediate action, after a girl of 12 was raped another managed to escape, and several Bumstroking ” incidents
Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has suggested that all 12 of the local authorities swept up in May’s turquoise tsunami could now look to use Epping’s ruling as a precedent to shut their respective migrant hotels.

Writing for The Telegraph, Mr Farage said that Reform-run local authorities should do “everything in their power to follow Epping’s lead”.
He added: “The good people of Epping must inspire similar protests around Britain.
Saying digital ID is an effective tool against poverty is a non sequitur, where the logic of the second statement does not follow on from the first. It’s like saying get yourself a house cat if you want to stop your car running out of fuel. The fact digital ID will ensure most who are in poverty will remain there while most of the rest will soon join them makes this statement just another big fat globalist lie.
LOL..
That’s the thing about creatures like dollar bill and his lackeys and the creatures he lackeys for, they are always making ‘things’ available.. generally ‘things’ nobody wants… and after they are ‘made available’ and nobody wants them..
then they are mandated..
They use all manner of quackery and lol ‘reverse psychology’..as we saw with their toxic injectables..which were ‘made available’ suspiciously quickly.. and people were urged to hurry and get ‘theirs’..like they were a fucking designer handbag..they use this con in advertising all the time, its called FOMO..
of course knightly’s list of nonsense is just the didgitisation of the prison you are already inhabiting…the usual Saturnine litany of bullshit that they insist should concern you..yes..even the absence of black faces on chinese posters, which if you think about it is perfectly natural if you are in fucking china..
STARMER AN AGENT FOR A FOREIGN POWER

Labour Party membership falls by over 200,000 in past few years
Story by Christopher McKeon •
•Labour has lost over 200,000 members in the past few years, the party’s latest annual accounts have shown.
The Tony Blair disaster lost so many labour Party members, his mas murders in iraq and his dodgy dossier have made Toerag-Tony persona non grata in the UK But the party is still the largest in the UK, despite a surge in membership for Reform UK. There isa huge downturn in support for the 3 rothschild parties. Nigel Farage’s party did not include a membership figure in its own accounts, published by the Electoral Commission on Thursday, but a ticker on Reform’s website said it had 234,460 members.The public are counting on getting migrants returned to their own country but this is not yet definate Figures published on Thursday showed the party had shed another 37,215 members The losses bring Labour’s membership right down, Starmer has not got a clue, his racism, rent boys attacks on UK patriots and his communist agenda have made him a hate figure

The real race hate was bringing these migrant folk in in the first place
TPTB will reward their useful + reject their useless

I think you anglosaxons,welsh,irish,scots
get only chance to empty your motherland
if you get several harsh freezing winters
that even the english channel freezes .
15 Minute Cities are an effective tool against protests
@ Richard able
Don’t YOU get it?
starmer and his clowns are a handpicked distraction,
a coconut shy,
nothing more nothing less.
Set up to soak up and satisfy the low information mob.
Bless them…
what do you suppose would be the reaction to someone going to the protests and attempting to inform the “patriots” who is really responsible for the whole shit show?
White people live in full apathy, as they are disconnected, disassociated and depressed, which causes a strong sense of powerlessness.. the only solution is massive white unity.
@ MIKE
will not happen because they are desunited
in classes, ideologies, religions .
and then there are the betterment avantgarde
making everything worst .
Selling the totalitarian surveillance state to the gullible using the ‘all-equal-rainbow-paradise’ dream.
