Google owns the \u201cNest\u201d brand which promises \u201csmart home\u201d functionality to control your home through a Google app on your mobile device. But during the outage, <strong>people were locked out of their smart homes<\/strong>\u2026 and many were unable to control home appliances such as air conditioners or lights.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">It turns out that a \u201csmart home\u201d is an incredibly stupid idea. If you can\u2019t even open your front door without getting permission from a remotely processed Google login procedure that requires the smooth functioning of routers, servers and the power grid, you\u2019ve put yourself in a stupid situation. Do you really want Google \u2014 now the most evil corporation in the world \u2014 to control your access to your own home? Do you even want Google <em>knowing<\/em> when you\u2019re entering and leaving your home?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Remember: <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/newstarget.com\/2019-06-04-daily-beast-doubles-down-on-its-journo-terrorism-tactics-doxxed.html\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Facebook just committed an act of terrorism<\/strong><\/span><\/a> by leaking the identity of a conservative to The Daily Beast, which then used that information to publicly dox the individual, encouraging violent left-wing lunatics to raid his home and try to kill him. There\u2019s no doubt Google has similarly vindictive libtards working for it, and if one of those libtards gained access to your smart home log files, they could both <em>dox<\/em> you and publicly publish your home access schedules, allowing criminals and Antifa terrorists to target you with remarkable precision. (Similarly, <a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/newstarget.com\/2019-06-04-twitter-catering-to-communist-chinese-regime-tiananmen-square.html\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Twitter recently banned hundreds of Tiananmen Square dissident accounts<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, going all-in with the communist Chinese regime that tortures and organ harvests political dissidents.

The reason that\u2019s smart is because physical keys require:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">No updates or downloads<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">No license agreements or terms of service<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">No electricity or internet functionality<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">No software, firmware or vaporware<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">No user rights, user levels or passwords<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">No encryption, no biometrics and no spying on you<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Thus, in a world dominated by evil Google and its surveillance infrastructure that wants to control every last detail of your life, <strong>physical keys are pure genius<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">My podcast explains much more.

What\u2019s the value of your \u201csmart\u201d home system when the cloud doesn\u2019t function? That answer is obvious: <strong>no value<\/strong>. In fact, it\u2019s a detriment, as it prevents you from accessing your own home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">In the same way you might compare a \u201csmart home\u201d to a physical key, you might also compare cryptocurrency to cash (or gold). What\u2019s the value of cryptocurrency when the power grid is down? <strong>Zero<\/strong>. But gold, silver, cash or even ammo is all immediately usable, with or without electricity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">In fact, <strong>all firearms function perfectly without software or electricity<\/strong>. That\u2019s why firearms are reliable: They operate on the laws of physics and chemistry, not the fake promises of Elon Musk or a bunch of incompetent over-libtarded Google engineers (because Google no longer hires people who are <em>qualified<\/em> to write code. Instead, it hires people who are <em>sufficiently progressive<\/em> to fit in with <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ccffff; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/2019-06-03-google-culture-dominated-by-witch-hunts-against-conservatives.html\">the Google cult<\/a><\/strong><\/span> that despises normal people.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">If you turn your life over to evil tech giants, don\u2019t be surprised when they abuse their power, lock you out of your home, release your private details to a lunatic mob and de-platform you so that you can\u2019t go public with what they\u2019ve done to you. That\u2019s how Google, Facebook, Twitter, Apple and all the other tech giants operated. They\u2019re pure evil.
