Why are we being encouraged to entrust our whole lives to an internet which patently isn't secure when so many of us don't have the slightest clue how to protect ourselves properly? Why is it becoming increasingly hard to avoid having our personal information held on computers all over the place? We're being ever more closely scrutinised and forced into a situation where our lives can effectively be examined and, if necessary, shut down at the press of a button somewhere.
For me there are two possibilities and they're not mutually exclusive. This is all the result of pure negligence and idiocy on the part of our glorious leaders around the globe or these people have collectively come to realise that in order to have a chance of protecting themselves (the chosen few) and their livelihoods from what I believe is inevitable global turmoil, they're setting us up to be controlled. What better way to control people than by leading them into a digital existence in which all the tools they need to run their lives can be shut off in an instant?
I've never been a great conspiracy theorist but increasingly over the years I've looked at what's been/being allowed to happen and find it hard to put it all down to ineptitude, especially when it's clear that with growing pressure on resources and increasing population there's going to be less to go around and the rich/powerful are not going to want to see their privileged existence eroded.
Not long ago I'd have viewed the above as science fiction but I'm fast coming to the conclusion that this is all part of a plan in which global turmoil (however it results) is being used and even created in order to bring it to fruition.

I'm of the same opinion. I think that it is definitely happening in Europe.
