'Big Data' & governments now have access to your heart.

As we should know 'smart' watches have been around for a while, where they have really been taken up by the mainstream 'consumers' for over a decade now.

Their telemetrics have increased significantly over the years, where now even some sensors are gaining certification as medical tools.

Heart rate is child's play now, where Sp02 (saturation of peripheral oxygen), ECG (electrocardiogram) and 'body battery' terms are becoming the new normal.

While one can obtain whatever information one desires with regards to the functioning/accuracy of smart watches from a plethora of successful reviewers on social media, one of the most important aspects is (deliberately?) left out, that being privacy.

It seems that they're just corporate whores, sponsored by the corporations to spruik their wares, but that would just be a conspiracy theory, right?

While one can read the multinational's 'privacy policy' when installing the companion app to their smart watch, and be besotted by their terminology and (alleged) data privacy policy all this is 'smoke and mirrors'.

Do you know why?

They have your data, you are not in control of it's flow, and your personal information must be given in the companion app before the smartwatch is usable to you, otherwise you will not be able to see 'your' data, the data you create/generate.

Can these corporations program the app without obtaining your exact location or email address or phone number?

Of course they can, but the don't want to, or have a secret agreement with agencies not to, as we now live in a surveillance capitalism world within the 5eyes, 9eyes and 14eyes countries.

Example of an app that does not require a login or internet to connect to a smart watch.

As always the humble serf (en masse, of course) can change the ways of corporations, but that would require a little bit of work, and we know how lazy the serfs really are, remembering that their silence is acquiescence.

One way to make that change is by quite simply 'voting' with your wallet, i.e not purchasing the product that the corporation 'requires' your data, and stating that to them.

Not all is lost though, as 'hackers' or rather programmers have been looking into the ins and outs of smart watches and have created apps that do not require the use of the internet to use the smartwatch with your phone in order to access that data that you create.

One such app that is open source which can function with a few brands is called Gadgetbridge, which is only available for the Android operating system smartphone.

We do not recommend the use of any Apple devices if your privacy is a concern, irrespective of their marketing jargon.

There are also other smart watch manufacturers that have companion apps that can be used without a login, but that's a hit and miss scenario.

Fines Victoria alleged debt, under what lawfully enacted instrument?

This is an actual [template] letter from Fines Victoria from (an alleged) Mr. Duncan Stewart to a 'person', where the 'victim's' details have been obscured.

If you received this letter in your person's name then you may become a victim of fraud by more than one entity, against your person's name.

Let's begin!

Debtor:

• How did you lawfully incur a debt to 'Fines Victoria' (ABN 68 122 448 122?)?

• Was there a lawfully issued court order in your person's name and by whom?

• Was the person issuing the order sitting in office lawfully?

• Can that person produce the oath taken?

• Did you get an opportunity to face your accuser?

• What lawfully issued instrument was used to create the (alleged) debt?

'Dealing' with a fine:

Even at this late stage of the 'game' if you write a letter to Fines Victoria, or Mr. Duncan Stewart more specifically, that you require the matter to be revocated to the court, then you are 'dealing' with the fine.

I may:

The letter states: “I may take one or more actions to recover the amount you owe.”

This means that Mr. Stewart 'may', as opposed to will take action.

I may:-

1. deduct money from your bank account or wages,

2. direct VicRoads to suspend your driver licence or vehicle registration,

3. or charge and sell the land you own.

Now, this is one of the more problematic sections of the letter.

First of all Mr. Stewart needs a lawfully issued instrument to carry out any of those actions, where if one does not exist he has carried out actions beyond his power, where the 'common law' crime of theft will occur if one or more of those actions are carried out.

In point iii). Mr. Stewart states that he 'may' charge and sell the land (eg. where your home is located on) you 'own'.

Mr. Stewart is stating that you factually 'own' this land?

Where is this paperwork that states that you 'own' the land he is coming for?

Mr. Stewart also states the following:

“ If a warrant is issued against you, the Sheriff may wheel clamp your vehicle, take and sell your assets, or arrest you."

Now, this is the most problematic part of the letter thus far.

A sheriff of a state is an officer of the state's Supreme Court.

In the case of Victoria, at this point in time, there is no lawfully appointed sheriff, nor was the previous (alleged) sheriff Mr. Brendan Facey lawfully appointed.

Again, what lawfully issued instrument will allow a person to take your possessions, arrest you or stop your vehicle from moving?

“take action”

Writing a letter to Me. Duncan Stewart regarding clarification with regards as to how one has lawfully become a 'debtor' to Fines Victoria is taking action in dealing with the matter.

There are many other aspects of law that must be considered with regards to obtaining a remedy to the letter presented to you.

For example, but not limited to:

• If there is no lawfully appointed sheriff, then there are no lawful deputies.

• If a warrant is factually issued it MUST be present to you in its prescribed format, where all the 'checks and balances' are present and not appear as an 'Excel' spreadsheet summary.

• If you did not appear in court to face your accuser, then this is a breach of the Charter of Rights & Responsibilities, a denial of natural justice.

You must take further action as they will not give you a 'remedy' on a silver plate where they will try to deceive you in the process.

So far there have been no lawfully issued warrants in the state of Victoria, since at least the tenure of Mr. Brendan Facey, as director of Fines Victoria (and not the sheriff) arising from the 'Infringements Court'.

Remembering that judges/magistrates are tort feasors, and not as described under Ch.III of the Constitution.

Password lengths & how long it takes to crack

A report from cybersecurity firm Hive Systems (via CNBC) reveals how long it can take the average hacker to figure out the passwords that you use to protect your most important online accounts. For example, using numbers alone could allow a hacker to instantly discover your password anywhere from 4 to 11 characters long.

If you use only lowercase letters for a password, you might as well just give the data you're protecting directly to the hackers. Passwords with four to eight characters that are lower case only can be cracked instantly according to Hive while a password consisting of nine lower case letters can be discovered in 10 seconds. If the password requires 10 characters, that time expands to 4 minutes while an 11 character password using nothing but lower case letters can be figured out in two hours.

Advancements in technology help hackers crack passwords faster than just two years ago

Using a mix of lower and uppercase letters, passwords of four through six characters can be cracked instantly according to the study. Passwords comprised of seven characters take only two seconds to discover while passwords with eight, nine, and 10 characters using both lower and upper case letters can be figured out in two minutes, one hour, and three days, respectively. An 11 character password using upper and lower case letters can hold off a hacker for up to five months.

Chart reveals how long the average hacker would take to crack your password depending on character mix and length of password

Even if you were to mix in lower case and upper case letters along with numbers, using a password comprised of only four to six characters is not safe at all. And if you were to add symbols to the mix, even a six-letter password could be cracked instantly. The bottom line is that your password needs to be lengthy and adding one extra letter can make a huge difference in keeping your personal data safe.

For example, using lower and upper case letters, numbers, and symbols, a ten-letter password could be solved in five months according to the report. Using the same letters, numbers, and symbols, an 11-character password would take as long as 34 years to crack.

Your online passwords should be no less than eight characters long

Hive suggests that at the minimum, a password used online should contain no fewer than 8 characters using a mix of mix of numbers, uppercase letters, lowercase letters and symbols. Want to have your mind blown? An 18 character password using the aforementioned mix of numbers, letters, and symbols would take up to 438 trillion years to be discovered by the average hacker.

Thanks to tech advancements, hackeres had a harder time breakibng into your account two years ago

The cybersecurity firm posted a couple of colorful graphs showing how hackers are able to figure out passwords faster now than just two years ago because of advances in technology.

Batteries do not make electricity

Batteries, they do not make electricity – they store electricity produced elsewhere, primarily by coal, uranium, natural gas-powered plants, or diesel-fueled generators. So, to say an EV is a zero-emission vehicle is not at all valid.

Also, since forty percent of the electricity generated in the U.S. is from coal-fired plants, it follows that forty percent of the EVs on the road are coal-powered, do you see?"

Einstein's formula, E=MC2, tells us it takes the same amount of energy to move a five-thousand-pound gasoline-driven automobile a mile as it does an electric one. The only question again is what produces the power? To reiterate, it does not come from the battery; the battery is only the storage device, like a gas tank in a car.

There are two orders of batteries, rechargeable, and single-use. The most common single-use batteries are A, AA, AAA, C, D. 9V, and lantern types. Those dry-cell species use zinc, manganese, lithium, silver oxide, or zinc and carbon to store electricity chemically. Please note they all contain toxic, heavy metals.

Rechargeable batteries only differ in their internal materials, usually lithium-ion, nickel-metal oxide, and nickel-cadmium. The United States uses three billion of these two battery types a year, and most are not recycled; they end up in landfills. California is the only state which requires all batteries be recycled. If you throw your small, used batteries in the trash, here is what happens to them.

All batteries are self-discharging. That means even when not in use, they leak tiny amounts of energy. You have likely ruined a flashlight or two from an old, ruptured battery. When a battery runs down and can no longer power a toy or light, you think of it as dead; well, it is not. It continues to leak small amounts of electricity. As the chemicals inside it run out, pressure builds inside the battery's metal casing, and eventually, it cracks. The metals left inside then ooze out. The ooze in your ruined flashlight is toxic, and so is the ooze that will inevitably leak from every battery in a landfill. All batteries eventually rupture; it just takes rechargeable batteries longer to end up in the landfill.

In addition to dry cell batteries, there are also wet cell ones used in automobiles, boats, and motorcycles. The good thing about those is, ninety percent of them are recycled. Unfortunately, we do not yet know how to recycle single-use ones properly.

But that is not half of it. For those of you excited about electric cars and a green revolution, I want you to take a closer look at batteries and also windmills and solar panels. These three technologies share what we call environmentally destructive production costs.

A typical EV battery weighs one thousand pounds, about the size of a travel trunk. It contains twenty-five pounds of lithium, sixty pounds of nickel, 44 pounds of manganese, 30 pounds cobalt, 200 pounds of copper, and 400 pounds of aluminum, steel, and plastic. Inside are over 6,000 individual lithium-ion cells.

It should concern you that all those toxic components come from mining. For instance, to manufacture each EV auto battery, you must process 25,000 pounds of brine for the lithium, 30,000 pounds of ore for the cobalt, 5,000 pounds of ore for the nickel, and 25,000 pounds of ore for copper. All told, you dig up 500,000 pounds of the earth's crust for just - one – battery."

Sixty-eight percent of the world's cobalt, a significant part of a battery, comes from the Congo. Their mines have no pollution controls, and they employ children who die from handling this toxic material. Should we factor in these diseased kids as part of the cost of driving an electric car?"

I'd like to leave you with these thoughts. California is building the largest battery in the world near San Francisco, and they intend to power it from solar panels and windmills. They claim this is the ultimate in being 'green,' but it is not. This construction project is creating an environmental disaster. Let me tell you why.

The main problem with solar arrays is the chemicals needed to process silicate into the silicon used in the panels. To make pure enough silicon requires processing it with hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, hydrogen fluoride, trichloroethane, and acetone. In addition, they also need gallium, arsenide, copper-indium-gallium- diselenide, and cadmium-telluride, which also are highly toxic. Silicon dust is a hazard to the workers, and the panels cannot be recycled.

Windmills are the ultimate in embedded costs and environmental destruction. Each weighs 1688 tons (the equivalent of 23 houses) and contains 1300 tons of concrete, 295 tons of steel, 48 tons of iron, 24 tons of fiberglass, and the hard to extract rare earths neodymium, praseodymium, and dysprosium. Each blade weighs 81,000 pounds and will last 15 to 20 years, at which time it must be replaced. We cannot recycle used blades.

There may be a place for these technologies, but you must look beyond the myth of zero emissions.

"Going Green" may sound like the Utopian ideal but when you look at the hidden and embedded costs realistically with an open mind, you can see that Going Green is more destructive to the Earth's environment than meets the eye, for sure.

The solution? Lead simpler lives and use less energy.
