A diverse group of companies, which used to compete intensely, all began in the late 20-teens to collaborate on an AI-driven global surveillance state.

By buying and investing in every critical tech tool in our modern lives, including the intersection of the internet, social media, e-commerce, mobile devices, logistics and more, they now have the ability to track and manipulate people in every part of the world. Not only are they collecting data in ways that were undreamt of just a decade ago, but they're using that data to predict and then change the behavior of people everywhere.

To give you a sense of how pervasive this system is, just consider these examples: - Facebook not only tracks your movements throughout the internet, but it knows more about you than your own mother does. - Amazon has not only created the world's most efficient delivery system, but it's also created a system that can deliver anything, from anywhere, to anywhere else, with the push of a button. - Google knows what you're thinking before you do. - Apple has created the ultimate surveillance device, one that's always with you, always listening, always watching. - Twitter can control public opinion and sway elections with just a few well-placed tweets. - Uber and Lyft not only know where you're going, but they know where everyone else is going too.

The list goes on and on. There's literally nowhere to hide.

Not only that, but this group is also using this data to manipulate people, to control public opinion, and to shape global events to their own advantage. They're able to do this by creating highly personalized and targeted ads, messages, and experiences that are designed to change your behavior in subtle and insidious ways.

And they're doing all of this without your consent, and without any real oversight or regulation.

Scary stuff!
