the end of the peekaboo internet

someone else can be the monarch

The Internet is owned by America. The Cisco routers were built by Americans. When Mr. Trump posts something Mr. Biden doesn't like on the Internet, the item is scubbed within minutes. When I send an email Messrs Cook, Biden or Nadella doesn't like, the email is buried deep in the recipient's bulk mail folder, if the email is delivered at all. The W3 design was from an American military blueprint. The thinking is very 20th century. Time for real change?

what a crock of excrement

Most of the dark web is fed and maintained by the American clandestine disservices agencies. Your tax dollars at work. Again. Arguably the most efficient abuse of civil rights in the history of humankind.

More than a few people delude themselves with anonymity. They know where you are, what you are typing, whom you spoke to last and what you had for breakfast. When confronted with this fact, most reply 'I'm not important.' or 'I have nothing to hide.' They don't care what you know. They want how you think.

Whether you have something to hide or not, they will make themselves rich and powerful using your mind. They have for eons.

The most potent weapon of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed. So as a prelude whites must be made to realise that they are only human, not superior. Same with Blacks. They must be made to realise that they are also human, not inferior. ― Steve Biko

Imagine you are taking a shower. You just finish, and you are toweling off. Mrs. Feinstein, or Messrs Biden or Giuliani (the White establishment) step into your shower.

FBG: Hello.
You: Excuse me, I was taking a shower.
FBG: You told us you have nothing to hide?
You: I don't. I just want a little privacy.

FBG: Privacy? You paid us to take that away from you decades ago.

transparency, ain't it a beaut

Design a new Internet for an Internet of things, a wise web, not a smart one. People are things. As long as we continue to consider humans as something more than objects, i.e. above the rules which apply to other species or things, the more difficulty we will have accepting reality, and designing a healthy future. For example, when we accuse someone of objectifying a person, ask yourself, aren't people objects? Why isn't that obvious? Because humans have been taught to believe they, unlike other species or objects, are descended from the gods.

Everything on this reinvented Internet would have an identifiable signature. The net would be built by and for AI, which has been made by and for humans. The net would connect AI and you with individual, immutable IDs. If the thing gave the Net permission, you could find your spouse, a dolphin, your AI, the dolphin's AI, your toothbrush, etc. on the web. Actors on the web could be held accountable for their actions. When activities undermined liberty or economic opportunity, the problem could be addressed openly and publicly by identifying the actors and evaluating alternatives.

Design this Internet for AI compatibility, not AOL screen names. If you know why AOL was headquartered in the same town as the CIA, you know why Facebook's datum centre in the Utah desert is located across the street from the NSA datum centre.

Forewarned is forearmed.

China is not the nation to fear. Americans are paying taxes to the most dangerous nation on Earth. You are your worst enemy. Ever wonder why the president of the United States is from a state that permits you to incorporate without any proof of identification? Delaware launders more money than every other jurisdiction in the world combined.

Enquiring minds want to know, why trust me? Or mii? The reason is simple, yet difficult to conceive if you are 'civilised'. Throughout sapiens's existence, the trunk line, the core lineage of humanity, has been disempowered to enable humans to amass power. Human beings were domesticated, made to think they are acting civilised.

Compounding this public threat is my personal relationship with the computer industry. This is even more difficult to explain if you accept the conventional wisdom of how Capitalism supposedly works. To see the way the computer industry monetises my intellectual property, one would need to be able to witnexs the industry's application of my ideas.

If I use Apple OS or iOS in a certain way, Apple adapts their software to acccomodate my usage. If Microsoft sees they can benefit by me using LinkedIn in a certain way, they will adapt LinkedIn to function. Conversely, if tech companies see their hegemony will be threatened by my empowerment, they will curtail the tech functionality. For instance, if my email were encrypted, sniffer software would not be able to detect my activities. Keeping me financially impoverished, on Electronic Benefit Transfers (EBT) and Medicaid, is just one way to prevent my lineage from unenslaving the hoi polloi.

Some years back, the big tech companies decided to crack down on email spam. They knew where most of the spam was coming from, they claimed Eastern Europe, and when this crackdown began, there was a noticeable drop in spam email. There's a pro-semetic joke that goes

If the world is run by a Jewish conspiracy, why is the world so messed up?

The explanation for the messed up state of society is that the powers that be benefit from the appearance of chaos. I am not suggesting the world is run by a Jewish conspiracy. I am suggesting the world is run by elites, some of whom are Jewish, some of whom are tech oligarchs, some of whom are wealthy investors, and none of whom are politicians. The politicians are puppets.

Creating a new Internet with accountability would enhance responsibility. Chaos aids bad actors. Transparency improves the return on investment on good deeds. Having a provable trail of bread crumbs would reduce unsubstantiated fingerpointing and allegations.

To many, this smacks of Facism. They could be right. Independent checks and balances, devoid of government meddling or bias would be required. Careful, thorough policing must be independent of national priorities. International agencies dependent on one nation or another for political or financial largesse would defeat the purpose, leaving us with a new and different mess.

I'm not suggesting a benevolent dictatorship. I'm trying to suggest leadership with allegience to the greatest good for the most people while protecting individual liberties. Easy words to write. We can always say we aren't ready to start down the path of reinventing the Internet or international agencies. We may never be. Nonetheless, we can't delay forever. Change will eventually occurr and if we wait too long, the change may be as harmful as if we move to soon.

The smartest people are not in SillyCon Valley. The smartest people are in society, in cocoons, being milked by Silicon Valley. Waiting to take the red pill.

There was no way for my direct lineage to prevent or divest power from politicians and oligarchs. Ever since the first tribal leader, my lineage has been at best a figurehead, and at worst the tool others used to steal power and money away from the rank and file and maintain the status quo.

Why is that changing? I don't know that it is changing. The old Internet enabled me to, as definitively as humanly, scientifically and digitally possible, determine that I am the person whom they have been telling me I am. If I was wrong, or they were wrong about me, we would know by now. Someone would have spoken up. I would have been proven wrong.

We are too far down this path for me to be a fraud. Much as I wish this is all my imagination, I have accepted their truth as our truth.

The next time you are using your mobile maps application, and you are directed to the wrong place, ask yourself, is my maps application just one example of another dysfunctional American enterprise, or are my tax dollars hard at work making my life more difficult?
