You and Your Body Parts Are the Missing Link Between Digital IDs, CBDCs, the Coming System of Control

 America’s largest bank has all the systems in place to track your movements, your spending, and your sustainability. And they’re doing it, not by the old plastic card in your wallet, but by biometric scanning devices to identify who’s in and out.

They’re already testing this on their own employees. On a small scale, JP Morgan Chase has equipped their new Manhattan HQ with all the equipment necessary to connect Biometric scanning with digital IDs, buying and selling.

You and your body parts are the last connecting factor for coming system of control.

Because your body consumes O2, food, and produces waste (that requires energy to manufacture), digital IDs are deemed necessary… for the sake of sustainability and security.

BiometricUpdate reports:

JPMorgan Chase’s new Manhattan headquarters will require biometric entry

“When employees begin reporting to JPMorgan Chase’s new Manhattan headquarters later this year, they will be required to submit their biometric data to enter the building. The policy, a first among major U.S. banks, makes biometric enrollment mandatory for staff assigned to the $3 billion, 60-story tower at 270 Park Avenue…

…Internal communications reviewed by the Financial Times and The Guardian confirm that JPMorgan employees assigned to the new building have been told they must enroll their fingerprints or undergo an eye scan to access the premises.

Earlier drafts of the plan described the system as voluntary, but reports say that language has quietly disappeared. A company spokesperson declined to clarify how data will be stored or how long it will be retained, citing security concerns. Some staff reportedly may retain the option of using a badge instead, though the criteria for exemption remain undisclosed.

The biometric access requirement is being rolled out alongside a Work at JPMC smartphone app that doubles as a digital ID badge and internal service platform, allowing staff to order meals, navigate the building, or register visitors....<<<Read More>>>...

The Oldest Mask Of The Inca God From A Material That Is Not Found On Earth

 Recently, the sensational news spread around the world that mysterious artifacts were discovered off the coast of Florida.

Their antiquity was obvious, but their origin was unknown. In total, seven items fell into the hands of scientists. All of them are created from a material that is practically not found on Earth – iridium.

Of course, this item was created by the hands of people and in quite earthly conditions. The fact is that iridium is found in large quantities in fallen meteorites. Apparently, the ancient people noticed the “sign” from heaven and went after it. Having obtained the most precious stone, they began to create cult objects....<<<Read More>>>...

Boiler Tax to Rise to £100 as Miliband Refuses to Back Down on Heat Pump Push

Ed Miliband has announced an increase in the ‘boiler tax’, which will add an estimated £100 to the cost of replacing a gas boiler, as he refused to back down from his hated heat pump push. The Telegraph has more.

The Government confirmed on Friday that the current quota for heat pumps sold by boiler manufacturers would rise from 6% to 8% from April 2026. It means for every 92 boilers sold, manufacturers must sell eight heat pumps. If they fall short, companies face a fine of £500 per unsold heat pump.

The fines are passed on to customers in the form of higher prices to cover the losses, leading the policy to be dubbed the ‘boiler tax’.

Figures for the UK’s four biggest boiler manufacturers – Worcester Bosch, Vaillant, Ideal and Baxi – suggest the 8% target is far above current demand, meaning hefty fines are inevitable.

Adrian Waddelove, of the Heating and Hotwater Industry Council, a trade body, said Mr Miliband’s new boiler tax would add about £100 to the price of each appliance.

He said: “This is effectively an additional Net Zero tax before the Chancellor even starts her budget.”

About 1.4 million gas boilers are installed annually, most of them replacing older models in the 25 million homes that use them.

The rate at which they are currently being replaced with heat pumps is so slow that it will take 150 years to complete the change. Just 30,000 were fitted to British homes from January to June this year, compared with Mr Miliband’s target of 600,000 annually by 2028.

Mike Foster, head of the Energy Utilities Alliance, the manufacturers and installers trade body, said of the boiler tax: “We have disagreed with this policy since its inception under the previous government. It imposes additional and unnecessary costs on the consumer when replacing their boiler....<<<Read More>>>....

OpenAI demands 100GW of new energy capacity per year

 OpenAI demands 100 gigawatts (GW) of new energy capacity per year (equivalent to 80 million households) to sustain AI data centers, framing electricity as "the new oil" for global dominance. 

This pits AI's energy demands against human needs, risking power shortages and grid instability.

The U.S. lags behind China, which added 429 GW of new capacity in 2024 (vs. America's 51 GW). OpenAI warns of an "electron gap" that could cede AI leadership to Beijing, pushing for urgent government-private sector collaboration to avoid falling behind.

Tech giants like Google and OpenAI are embracing nuclear power, despite past climate rhetoric. Google is reviving a mothballed Iowa nuclear plant, while OpenAI pushes for fast-tracked reactors. However, Westinghouse (bankrupt, over-budget) is building 10 new reactors, raising concerns about reliability and cost.

Water Wars and Depopulation Fears: AI data centers require massive water cooling, worsening droughts in already water-scarce regions. OpenAI's push for critical mineral stockpiles hints at supply chain control, while skeptics suspect globalist depopulation schemes—where resource competition accelerates societal collapse.

Big Tech has abandoned climate dogma, prioritizing cheap power over sustainability. Meta commissioned a 2-GW gas plant, and OpenAI's energy demands prioritize AI growth over environmental concerns. The looming question: Will humans or machines control power?

As the artificial intelligence (AI) revolution accelerates, an unprecedented energy crisis looms—one that pits Silicon Valley against the American power grid, human needs against machine demands, and the United States against China in a high-stakes battle for technological supremacy.

OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, has issued an urgent call for the U.S. government to mobilize 100 gigawatts (GW) of new energy capacity per year—equivalent to roughly 80 million households' worth of electricity—or risk losing the AI arms race to China....<<<Read More>>>...
