A lot of valuable information. Too bad people are so hopelessly weak and needy that it went in one eye and out the other. 95% of the digital tyranny takes place via smartphone, yet asking people to dump them is like asking a crack smoker to dump his pipe. Ain't happening. Run out and get a old school flip phone. Make the smartphone the housephone and leave it there. Turn it off when not in use. Drop the pipe!
Historical precedent shows that totalitarian regimes can endure for decades—North Korea’s dynastic autocracy and Maoist China’s revolutionary authoritarianism being prime examples—but their longevity depends on specific geopolitical, cultural, and infrastructural conditions. Such systems survive through ideological saturation, centralized control of information and resources, and the absence of pluralistic institutions. By contrast, Western algorithmic regimes like those emerging under Canada’s Bill C-8 operate within a distinct equilibrium: though increasingly reliant on surveillance, predictive governance, and infrastructural exclusion, they remain anchored in legal traditions that uphold individual rights, procedural safeguards, and civic contestation. This structural difference limits the totalization of control, as Western societies still possess fragmented yet resilient mechanisms of resistance—constitutional challenges, public mobilization, decentralized media, and a lingering cultural memory of past authoritarianisms. Algorithmic governance may steadily erode these safeguards, but it cannot fully reproduce the conditions that sustain enduring totalitarianism. What results is a paradoxical regime of managed consent, where control is pervasive yet never absolute, and the human drive for freedom, creativity, and moral agency continues to produce friction and rupture.
You are correct but "why do we need any of it?" All of it is insane when distilled to its true essence. I mean, the whole concept of modern governance is convoluted, and has become a race at the top to see who can do the most damage to those who feed the system by their participation and those of us who don't. If people did not show up there would be nothing for them to lord over. The people empower and create their oppressors willingly. This "external energy drain" over generations is corroding individual intellectual progress, financial progress and general peace of mind. People don't see it, so they continue hoping "this time" and "this one" will work. It won't.
Reinette's list is impressive and everyone should read it and consider how they might implement some of the suggestions.
I see no reason to have a smart phone at all. "Smart" anything is, at this point a path to universal digital ID/CBDC/social (dis) credit score enslavement (the "cure" is far worse than any "disease" for which it might be administered). We know where this digital ID putsch ends. Even those who refuse to see the obvious parallel to Revelation 13:16-18 have to admit that a "beast system" is being put in place which no one should want to live in. Nothing and I mean nothing about it is good. It is evil to the core. Those pushing it are betraying their fellow human beings in the most horrific possible way.
Best advice: reject anything to do with AI governance/digital ID/CBDC and any kind of social (dis) credit score system.
Good I still have my first mobile flip phone Motorola, still like new. I knew I don't have to throw it out. Years ago we had MagicJack, which had to be connected through the computer, so the inconvenience was that the PC had to be on all the time to receive calls. Later they had one that you'd connect via phone jack, was very cheap, have to look at it as a home phone.

Obviously, 'Age' is an innocuous and seemingly harmless statistic to demand, but that is just the tip of the iceberg. What will follow soon after is demands to your political leaning, your criminal record, your sexual persuasion and any other facts that can be used to control and discipline you.
Say NO to Digital ID. It's all part of the Elite's (WEF take-over and slavery) = The New World Order.
Are you sure your selections of VPN's are any better than Protonmail's? For instance, Mullvad-Swedish law does allow law enforcement, with a court-issued technical permit, to target a suspect's device directly to access data before it is encrypted by the VPN service. Gibraltar and Seychelles both cooperate with international requests under mutual legal assistance treaties. So if one rises to the attention of some government, the vpn will give up your data. Are you sure about Buycat vpn, Perplexity says "Buycat VPN is part of the Boycat ethical tech ecosystem. It is independently developed with a focus on privacy, no spyware history, no military ties, and zero data logging. The ownership is transparent, but the service is hosted on infrastructure provided by Vercel, whose CEO has openly supported Israel. <--- I point to this given the theme of your Substack post. At the end of the day people if it's digital, it's not completely safe!
I'm sorry, I must have read a different article. The one I was referring to spoke about a list of 7 VPN's that appear to be "entities with Israeli links". But more to my post, I was tackling the 5th and 6th paragraph about "logging by VPN's" and a specific direction concerning Protonmail that is generally misunderstood again pertaining to "logging" or if "logging" will occur under court order even in instances where it is claimed by the VPN that logs are not kept. This doesn't mean that for instance logging under court order could start on an individual account, even if the VPN doesn't log as a daily event. Hence my ending comment that if it's digital, it's not completely safe. Compromised devices is a whole different scope of discussion, as is meta data from "subject" lines and frequency of the "to and from". Hope this clears things up, All the best.
Proton has changed it's legal setup to a foundation, so no external money can compromise. Further it's possible to get an account with cash payment and no personal data.
I appreciate your adaptation for Americans! I just wanted people to know the original source especially because there's a lot of great resources on the mass noncompliance website and Fiona Diamond kicks butt! 💖
By using 911 these days, there is another backdoor no one seems to know about. There is software which gives them access to your phone and supposedly anything on it. There is no agreement you click and you won’t even know it. But it can see everything. Many states use it now.
Carbyne 911 refers to the company Carbyne, which provides cloud-based software solutions for emergency call centers, including 9-1-1 dispatchers. The platform, called Carbyne Universe or APEX, enhances emergency response by integrating AI, live video/audio streaming, precise location tracking, and integration with existing 9-1-1 systems. Its main goal is to improve efficiency and accuracy for public safety answering points (PSAPs).
Kareem, we aren't f***cked because many of us, more than expected, did not go along with the scheme and we won't go along with Digital ID and the social credit scores either. Now, if you did go along with the Covid scheme and took the shot, you are in murky waters.
The brainwashed 99% vs the 1%. Its not going to work out great for us. They’ll bring it all about with a massive economic crash (& or war) & bankrupt people like they did in the great Depression. These people are evil.
Hi there Reinette. Thanks for this wonderful article. I am about to write a few letters to many people in authority in Australia, regarding the digital I.D, which comes in (hopefully not,) in oz, over the X Mas period. Sneaky hey. The letters will be letting people know, that I recind my vote, as the Australian Voting system is not al all lawful. It is not constitutional. So by recinding my vote, it sends a big message. See Wayne Glew on fb. Reinette, while I have your "ear", I would like to share a concept that an engineer (extroadinaire,) has shared with me. It may already exist, but just wanted to let you know anyways. We were watching what I thought was geoengineering from a plane, and he said it was a vapour trail. Then he said, "You know, the particulate matter gives off different light, depending upon it molecular, (chemical) makeup. He then said, "I wonder if you can get spectacles, that refract the different lights, so that when you look through them, the water vapour will appear a different colour to a toxic chemical". Rather clever I thought. Better go to "Specsavers"!!! :) So some kind of spectrometry, attached to, or in, specs. Your thoughts if you may Reinette. P.S. I so admire your "fire in the belly, and drive". Hippy Hugs for you from Australia. :)
I just heard that Mexico is going to a biometric ID digital ID system next February. But like the European countries just did. And I don’t think one can opt out on the face one when entering the country. 😳😒
I won't be going to any countries forcing us into the digital ID system to visit them. Weveryone else should do the same.
Also, I have a hard time believe Mexican cartel members will be fine with giving over their biometrics to the Mexican, and subsequently, the US government!
Well if you want to get on an airplane, a train or some of the other means of public transport to go outside of your immediate area or travel to another country, you need some sort of ID. If you never “go anywhere” then you may not need one. I live next to Mexico on the border between San Diego and Tijuana, Baja CA Norte, Mexico. I go to a ‘biological holistic’ dentist in Mexico. He’s a far better dentist and far cheaper than his biological dentistry counterpart in the USA. To enter Mexico I need to show a passport for entry, the re-entry in to the USA.
You may think a plane is “private transport” but it is taken from a public local government entity, with the Federal Government providing “security screening services” through TSA, an arm of The Department of Homeland Secrity. Nothing “private” about that experience.
It’s your choice to not travel in a plane or public transport that requires identification, that originates from a public airport or train station. The only way around that is to procure travel on a private aircraft and you may have to show the company you are procuring that private transport from, sort of ID.
An addition to this…Reinette I saw Josh and Adam Bigelsen at the Weston A Price Wise Traditions conference in SLC this weekend. Adam lives in Jalisco in Lake Chapala. He doesn’t think the Digital ID and what not will be an issue. Because as he noted to me, over 40% of the country have no bank accounts or use credit cards. Try to get 40% of any population to ‘buy in’ on that crap outside of the major cities in Mexico!
This is the most helpful article/information I’ve received on this issue. I’d love to hear how people are practicing these points in real time, share resources,etc. Please let me know if there is a group in the making.
While all of this is alarming and overwhelming, I think most people are focused on what they can “see” happening everyday. People being dragged off the streets in front of their children and put in concentration camps, disappeared. Healthcare unaffordable, therefore, creating sickness and death. SNAP benefits being taken away, can’t feed their families. Medicare, Medicaid and SS being diminished or taken away. These are the things that everyday people feel and see. Yes, all of this digital takeover is alarming but if you can’t survive in this country because basic needs are taken away this feels like one more thing added to the list of outrage.
A lot of valuable information.

Flip phones are the way!
Brand new "bare bones" flips cost 40-50 bucks. There is only so much they can do tech wise, so they are safer.
Can you provide information on where to find these?
Search: TCL FLIP PHONE UNLOCKED. They still snoop, but with limited capabilities. :)
Will do. Super helpful!! 🙏🏼
You deserve it. Peace

Hear, hear, Luc! We are not China. While this authoritarian plan has been generations in the making, we are not China.
Yes. Your stance is absolutely correct:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRb1sbuCNWA
I would ask you to consider what truly constitutes 'we'.
Is it the label you can put and scrape off like a bumper sticker on a car?
Or does it go deeper...
You are correct but "why do we need any of it?" All of it is insane when distilled to its true essence. I mean, the whole concept of modern governance is convoluted, and has become a race at the top to see who can do the most damage to those who feed the system by their participation and those of us who don't.

If its too old it may not connect to modern 4-5G networks. I had an old phone that I used until it no longer could connect.
Hear ya, and you can't rescue people who enjoy "drowning" Stay the f...away from everything "SMART"
Great advice Jean-Baptiste.

I don't carry one.
Because you are smarter than most. I mean, damn they don't hide the capabilities. People are just oblivious.
Where do you get an old school flip phone? They have prepaid service ?

Mick, how is the pushback in the UK? Are people waking up? Are you seeing signs of the carbon tracking on products, etc?
Im not from UK but yes you already see packed food with Carbon information on it.
sounds like “50 ways to leave your lover” x 2, lol…
Fuuuuunnny.

You've missed the point.
The list of VPNs concerns those who are being run by entities not operating under the law.
Mullvad is not such an entity.
Casting shade on Mullvad, because your devices may be compromised by OTHER actors by OTHER means will not fly here.
[edit] Your other comments are valid. By no means should readers assume that use of a known good vpn solves all security issues.
I'm sorry, I must have read a different article. The one I was referring to spoke about a list of 7 VPN's that appear to be "entities with Israeli links".

That is seemingly true. Digital anything can be hacked.
Yes, I heard Doc Malic interview Fiona Diamond on this topic. Her website ( from which this list of 100 is taken) is https://massnoncompliance.com/home-front
Yes, and adapted for Americans. Thank you. I got this list off of a X post.
I appreciate your adaptation for Americans! I just wanted people to know the original source especially because there's a lot of great resources on the mass noncompliance website and Fiona Diamond kicks butt! 💖
Thank you for this monumental amount of information on how to fight digital ID BS.

Drum, I think this is a brilliant idea..... and ideas of a specific model that would do the trick? I would promote the heck out of this!
And thanks for your kind words!
I just heard that Mexico is going to a biometric ID digital ID system next February. But like the European countries just did. And I don’t think one can opt out on the face one when entering the country. 😳😒

Also, I have a hard time believe Mexican cartel members will be fine with giving over their biometrics to the Mexican, and subsequently, the US government!
That’s basically what Adam B said…the cartels aren’t going to go for it. And they do ‘run the show’ a bit in Mexico! 😉😆
Then don't go there.
Why get an ID at all. Really.
Well if you want to get on an airplane, a train or some of the other means of public transport to go outside of your immediate area or travel to another country, you need some sort of ID. If you never “go anywhere” then you may not need one. I live next to Mexico on the border between San Diego and Tijuana, Baja CA Norte, Mexico. I go to a ‘biological holistic’ dentist in Mexico. He’s a far better dentist and far cheaper than his biological dentistry counterpart in the USA. To enter Mexico I need to show a passport for entry, the re-entry in to the USA.
[as an aside, airplanes are generally still private transport, unless you're one of the priveleged class who flies around in government planes.]
It's still your choice. I may want to get on that airplane but someone is preventing me. I will not obey that person. This is the only world we get.
Don't let them do this.
You may think a plane is “private transport” but it is taken from a public local government entity, with the Federal Government providing “security screening services” through TSA, an arm of The Department of Homeland Secrity. Nothing “private” about that experience.

I was considering the Proton VPN. Is there a link to information proving that Proton is affiliated with Israeli interests? Thanks.
It's a Swiss entitiy recently morphed into a foundation. Founders are physicists who formerly worked together at CERN in Geneva.
All Servers are in Switzerland. Don't identify links to Israel. Very content customer btw
For people who fear Digital Identification,
When exactly did you ditch your SIMCARD?
While all of this is alarming and overwhelming, I think most people are focused on what they can “see” happening everyday. People being dragged off the streets in front of their children and put in concentration camps, disappeared. Healthcare unaffordable, therefore, creating sickness and death.

Where is the list that includes where to buy healthy LED lites that don't flicker?
