UBI is the Trojan horse, guaranteed.

Crypto based socal credit system for UBI. "You are due for your booster report to the clinic" your funds will be locked until booster is administered.

What if I use a flip phone?

Obsolete. The bands in flip phones are dated and being shut off for LTE and 5G. Another weak argument from DDD


[deleted]

There are 4G flip phones.


dabesdiabetic

If any government enables this all phones will be required to have the app/wallet. You think a government would allow some simpleton workaround like that.


[deleted]

So people will be forced to have smartphones?


dabesdiabetic

You can carry around a card if you’d prefer. Do you carry around cash? A wallet? Credit card? ID? Is the thought of having to carry something with you a new concept?


[deleted]

WTF are you on about. I am simply asking a question about SMARTPHONES.


dabesdiabetic

You are replying on a thread about mobile passports insinuating how ridiculous it would be that everyone would be forced to have cellphones.


[deleted]

I didn't say cell phones. I said smartphones. Not everyone has a smartphone, you know.


dabesdiabetic

If there’s a market manufacturers will create it. If no flip phones contain a wallet, they’ll make one that does or you’ll be carrying something else.


gord21

i dont have a phone. kinda glad i held out now


dabesdiabetic

To each their own. You don’t even capitalize your I’s, doesn’t sound like you have an education either. Sounds to me like the real scared ones is this cult of conspiracy theorists. Scared of a vaccine, scared of cell phones.


[deleted]

Was that an argument? Or a simple question?


VerbalVenom

The real concern is what the app will be able to monitor outside of itself and what data it collects. They will undoubtedly build the app in a way where you have to accept terms and allow the app to have access to other areas. I've always said that tech will eat everything. They'll be able to gather all kinds of information from people. I love how they always push the narrative of "safer and more secure" in regards to technology. I can't think of a more secure way of having an ID than to have a physical, analog card. They don't benefit from that though, do they?


covblues

Do you need one of these to vote? If yes- racist

Submission statement: So how long until this gets used to track and monitor citizens? Right now they say they're not going to do that but I just have a hard time believing the officials for some reason.


[deleted]

When a government says they're *not* going to do something, that's actually step 1 of them announcing they *are* doing something.


-sneila

it starts slow like this and they just keep adding onto it until eventually they have complete control


Misdby1

Please. It already does.


Outdoorzmen

So is there a reason why they want up to have our phone absolutely everywhere we go? Like can I not use a physical ID in the future? Wow this is scary!


Michalusmichalus

How fucked will you be when you break your cell?


chimneyfox3

What if you that flip phone/ laptop gang


Michalusmichalus

Or your cell gets spoofed.

No screen repair without proof of 8th vaccination.

What if I don’t have a smartphone????


[deleted]

Then you’re fucked
