Stopping Digital ID & Potential Alternatives with Paul G. Conlon
I talk to fellow ‘Techie’ Paul G Conlon to discuss practical ways to disrupt the rollout of Digital IDs in Australia as well as anywhere else.

About a week ago I gave an interview to Nicola Charles on her popular “White Rabbit” Podcast on the topic of Digital IDs and how we can actually stop this locomotive from reaching its final destination: CBDCs (or the “final enslavement” as I like to refer to them).

You can watch/listen to the interview below:

This podcast episode is essentially that interview but I have added intro and outro to it to emphasise some important points which I hope will further drive the main message home which is:

We are out of time (especially in Australia) and thus the time for teaching the so called “Normies” and explaining the dangers and implications of a national digital ID scheme, is OVER!

We just need them to REJECT DIGITAL ID no matter what without necessarily understanding why they are doing so.

The quickest and most effective way to achieve that is through FEAR CAMPAIGNS which is what I spend most of this episode discussing and explaining (both why they are necessary and how exactly to execute them in order to guarantee results).

You may think FEAR-based campaigns are unethical and I actually don’t disagree.

However, here is the thing:

THEY WORK! It’s a “sure thing”.

Remember this from not that long ago? If you are Australian, I have ZERO doubt you do:

0:00
/0:22

Was it unethical? YOU BET!

Did it work on a HUGE portion of the Australian Public? I will let you answer that to yourself.

What I propose WILL also work and even if the portion of the population it works on is significantly smaller, it will still do the job!

If it works on the same portion the above fear-based campaign worked on, well, that’s just a bonus in my book.

This is the bare minimum we need to achieve but here is what a ‘stretch goal’ can look like:

The mission: Irrevocably destroy ANY trust the ‘normies’ have in using the Internet for anything involving their personal details being kept online or for ANY financial transactions…including Internet banking and online shopping. The ultimate objective: Ensure they NEVER sign up to a digital ID, even if their very lives were dependent on that. The method: Professional fear campaigns that will aim to TERRIFY people of using the Internet for anything involving the storage, provision or exchange of personal and/or financial information of ANY kind. Source material for such fear campaigns: HEAPS to choose from and ALL of it is truthful. Below is just one more example. No need to lie, just amplify and repackage to trigger an emotional response (rather than a rational one). Is it fair? Is it Ethical? That’s up to each person to answer. I personally don’t care the slightest because I know that it WILL work….and if we do it, we stand an excellent chance to finally take the initiative and actually score some WINS on the board. “Unrestricted Warfare” https://actionabletruth.substack.com/i/147222229/undermine-the-digital-id-agenda-by-scaring-people-from-having-their-personal-information-online-or-using-online-services-altogether https://ia.acs.org.au/article/2024/moneygram-confirms-data-breach-after-major-outage.html https://substack.com/@michaelginsburg/note/c-88881910

What is a Digital ID?

I’ve discussed that already in some detail here but here is a short recap:

A digital ID is a system that enables the definitive identification of a:

  1. Person;
  2. Entity (e.g. corporation, partnership etc);
  3. Device; or
  4. Any other thing.
Image

For this discussion, I am going to focus on #1 above: PERSON.

If you want to get an idea of what ‘use cases’ a mandatory national digital ID attacked to every single person will enable, here is a promotional video by Thales, a proud WEF partner for their digital ID product:

Here is a project Thales are doing in Canada:

Here are just a few other initiatives in this space. New ones appear to be popping up almost every month.

Digital ID is of STRATEGIC importance to the United Nations

The UN has been going on and on about the importance of Digital ID well before World War 3 even started on March 11, 2020.

For example, this is a presentation from 2018 on the (alleged) virtues of Digital ID as a data protection mechanism:

Digital Identity in a New Era of Data Protection
The continuing evolution of the digital economy across the globe and at the national level requires individuals to be able to assert their identity in order to participate in that digital economy. The United Nations Sustainable Development G

However, like most other things involving the digital world, things have started to accelerate significantly once we entered the 2020s.

The Digital Acceleration Agenda

In September 2023, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), in collaboration with IDB and the Boston Consulting Group published the SDG Digital Acceleration Agenda.

The 87 page document argues that rapid (and “accelerated” digitisation) can help in meeting the UN SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) and the objectives of Agenda 2030.

The document makes it crystal clear that a Digital ID is a CORE part of that “acceleration”.

Home - Taking Stock
We support UNDP Country Offices by combining our digital expertise with your specific program knowledge. This means you can build better products and services for your projects.

Here are just a few examples:

Page 29 of the document:

Page 72 of the document:

Digital public infrastructure (DPI) is the foundation and guide rails of national transformation, comprising digital components and building blocks to activate and support public and private service delivery.

DPI includes elements such as:
Digital payment infrastructure;Data exchange layers;Document verification and authentication; andDigital identity solutions.

However, it also defines the framework of the broader digital ecosystem, including aspects such as governance, trust and accountability, data protection and privacy rights, and other safeguards.

The UN document then provides a ‘case study’:

Example: Unleashing digital government services — India’s Aadhaar

The Indian government decided to create a digital ID initiative as a way for citizens to access government services and generate digital payments and signatures.

In 2009, Aadhaar was launched and is now the world’s largest biometric identity programme, used by over 90 per cent of Indians.

India’s approach to universal IDs prompted rapid enrolment and adoption. The CEO of Aadhaar estimated that the initiative saved the government about USD 10 billion over the course of 2.5 years.

Given this success, in 2023, India launched a partnership to share its experiences with peer countries which are eager to learn.

Aadhaar is a very big and very very (super duper) important topic which will be mentioned again further down in this piece.

It also forms the cornerstone of my interview with which you can find HERE.

In the meantime though, here is just a little something to ‘wet your appetite’ so to speak and interestingly enough, it comes from none other than Australia’s public broadcaster:

The UN Digital ID

The UN have also rolled out a Digital ID scheme for all of their employees in 2024:

If you don’t know why the UN and pretty much any globalist institution you can think of (and also many you can’t), as well as many (if not all by now) national governments, put so much effort into the mass rollout and adoption of Digital IDs, the next section is dedicated to explaining just that.

There can be no CBDC without digital ID implemented FIRST

Another very important thing to understand is that a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) cannot be rolled out without the majority of the population being ‘onboarded’ first to a digital ID.

This is regardless of whether such national digital-only currency is issued by the government/central bank (i.e. a CBDC) or comes in the form of some “stablecoin” issued by a corporation (i.e. a Corporate-issued Digital Currency or CDC as I like to refer to such “stablecoins”).

I will not explain WHY that is the case in this post for two reasons:

  1. I’ve already done so in great length here; and
  2. This is not the point of this post. The point of this post is to focus on the Digital ID itself and what I believe is the most (and quite likely ONLY) effective way to stop this global agenda at this stage.

This is the immediate next step anywhere unless Digital ID is stopped dead in its tracks. FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION!!!

Things are escalating rapidly in both Australia and the UK:

We ALL understand how this works now….YES? A sweeping transformation of the UK’s identity systems is underway, with the government poised to launch a digital identity wallet this summer. Beginning with a digital version of the Veteran card and expanding to include driving licenses later this year, the initiative is designed to eventually consolidate all government-issued credentials into a single, centralized app by 2027. https://reclaimthenet.org/the-uks-digital-id-era-starts-this-summer

In case you still need a recap of the very basics of the enemy’s modus operandi, the Digital ID agenda is GLOBAL in nature (they are not referred to as “globalists” for nothing you know) and what was successfully pushed through in one country (namely Australia, the NEW “official testing ground of the NWO”) will be rolled out EVERYWHERE (yes, including across the BRICS who are “fighting the globalists” supposedly). This means that if you happen to think you can sit this one out…THINK AGAIN!! In the UK specifically, it seems like this is the solution they intend to use for “Age Assurance" and the same company obviously also has a digital ID solution (with a built-in digital wallet because that’s the whole point!!): https://www.yoti.com/adult-content-age-verification/ https://reclaimthenet.org/uk-online-safety-act-ofcom-age-verification-algorithmic-suppression-rules

Have no doubt:

Digital IDs are of STRATEGIC importance to the enemy.

They know that without these rolled out and mandated everywhere, they cannot reach their final endgame of having total control on every human on this planet…forever!

Luckily for us, Digital IDs have a plethora of massive risks in them on various aspects, which means we have PLENTY of material for using in various fear campaigns without needing to resort to lies (which I absolutely do NOT advocate).

Most importantly, everything that is required for mandating digital currency (a.k.a. the “FINAL enslavement”) is READY TO GO NOW which means Digital IDs are the LAST missing piece:

SWIFT Banking System Debuts Tokenization, CBDC And Stablecoin Blockchain Trading Platform
The Trump administration is actively working and preparing their stablecoins, digital dollars, to be tradeable on the updated SWIFT network.

There are MASSIVE risks in large scale use of Digital IDs and those risks CANNOT be mitigated…EVER

This is the crux of the argument that should be used and be at the CORE of any and all fear campaigns launched.

The Australian Government comes out (again!) with the “safe & effective” mantra:

Whether you missed it or not, “Safe & effective” is BACK Australia! The ‘clinical trials’ were a “great success” too…🙄 Technologies to enforce the Australian government’s social media ban for under 16s are “private, robust and effective”. That’s according to the preliminary findings of a federal government-commissioned trial that has nearly finished testing them. https://theconversation.com/technology-to-enforce-teen-social-media-ban-is-effective-trial-says-but-this-is-at-odds-with-other-evidence-259373

But we all know better by now…RIGHT?

Outlined below are just a few of the most pertinent risks.

Identity theft or exfiltration of sensitive personal information

Here is a very recent example:

Now imagine if this was Australia’s Digital ID Repo MyID, or any other Digital ID scheme… Hackers have threatened Qantas and 38 other companies to pay a ransom by the end of the week or face their stolen data being published online. In June, Australia’s largest airline Qantas suffered a data breach which saw nearly six million customers’ data compromised after cybercriminals convinced a call centre in the Philippines to grant them access to an unnamed, third-party customer service platform. https://ia.acs.org.au/article/2025/hackers-threaten-to-release-qantas-data.html

Nicola Charles has done a great job touching on the aspect of Biometric data in her video below which was one of the reasons I wanted to have a chat with her:

This is perfectly articulated and there is nothing I can really add to the above.

Nicola presented this angle better than I have seen anywhere else and better than I could have done it myself to be honest which is why I’ve played that video in full at the intro of the Podcast episode.

Here is another recent “real life” examples of a biometric database getting breached and extensive amount of biometric data being STOLEN:

Long Beach Cyberattack Exposes Biometric and Personal Data; A Warning To Digital ID Advocates
A 17-month silence left residents in the dark while biometric data hung in the balance.

And another:

Child safety information missing in QLD after system ‘IT bungle’
Queensland’s most vulnerable children could be at risk of harm or even death following a major IT blunder at the Department of Child Safety, where incidents reports and personal information o…

And here is yet another (even more recent):

Hackers expose Victorian student details in data breach
Over 665,000 students could face identity theft risk.

While theft of biometric data is probably the worst kind of data breach, ANY theft of sensitive financial information can have dire consequences for the victims and these consequences CANNOT be effectively mitigated….EVER!

Hackers who broke into the State of Rhode Island's benefits systems and stole citizens' data in 2024 had persistence in the system for FIVE MONTHS before consulting giant (and WEF corporate partner) Deloitte, which had the contract to run the system, was able to detect the breach. The ONLY reason why one of the biggest providers of cybersecurity (and other technology-related) consulting services on the planet, with annual revenue of $67 billion, was able to detect the breach is because the threat actor ‘showed their hand’ and demanded ransom payment! In a press conference today, Governor Dan McKee and Chief Digital Officer Brian Tardiff provided an overview of the third-party analysis of the RIBridges data breach. The analysis of the Deloitte-operated system was conducted by the cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike and revealed the following timeline: In July 2024, a threat actor gained entry to the RIBridges system through unauthorized use of Deloitte credentials. Between July and November 2024, the actor accessed 28 systems in the RIBridges environment. Between November 11 and 28, 2024, the actor exfiltrated numerous files from the system. After November 28, the actor was no longer present in the system. Since the breach was identified in December, the State and Deloitte have taken appropriate security measures to ensure the safety of the system and to safeguard RIBridges from similar attacks.  As part of its in-depth analysis, CrowdStrike was able to identify conclusively the number of impacted individuals—644,401. That total includes 107,757 names that were recently uncovered through CrowdStrike’s forensic analysis. Some of the recently identified individuals were neither RIBridges customers nor applicants for benefits but were included in files shared with federal agencies for verification purposes. Notifications to these newly identified individuals should be arriving in mailboxes after Memorial Day. Deloitte has again hired Experian to staff a call center to support those whose data may have been breached. Those who receive a confirming letter dated May 22, 2025 can go online or call the toll-free hotline, 1-833-918-6603, to activate multiple years of free credit monitoring. https://admin.ri.gov/ribridges-alert https://archive.md/pUg4z

Furthermore, some billing information such as the last four digits on credit cards, customer purchase histories, IP addresses, messages with customer service agents, were also accessed. Corporate data such as training materials, and internal presentation were also accessed in limited numbers, Discord said. The attacker sought to extort an unspecified ransom from Discord. Discord did not disclose if it paid the ransom, nor did the company provide details on how the third-party support provider was compromised. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/malwaretech_looks-like-the-3rd-party-platform-discord-activity-7380015020304171008-mXrl https://www.itnews.com.au/news/age-verification-ids-taken-in-discord-data-breach-620833

MITGA- Make Identity Theft Great Again…🙄

For a VERY stark example how Identity Theft looks like in real life and the very very REAL implications it can have, I strongly recommend you watch in full this video telling the very very real story of William Donald Woods:

Whistleblowers are speaking out in the UK:

Now imagine how much WORSE this can be if everyone’s identity is stored as a digital ID in some government database or other centralised database…

How terrified are you NOW?

One of the primary ways the ‘authorities’ are integrating biometric data into future Digital IDs is through their mass collection for the purpose of international travel.

Perfect example of anvils painted like life preservers. Digital IDs are the core tech lynch pin of the globalists’ dystopian control grid. They will use all their carrot and stick narratives and “crises” conjuring to trick humans into this. DO NOT BUY IN. The future of earth rests in the regular humans’ hands as we build the new systems we need WITHOUT the globalists.

Significant portion of the nations of the world now issue their citizens with ePassports (electronic Passports) with a built-in chip which contains biometric data in a standard machine-readable format.

This is already not great (to put it mildly) but a national Digital ID system takes it to a whole new level!

You see, one can choose to avoid international travel altogether or opt for an ‘old fashioned’ Passport (if that option is still available in your country) and face the more onerous entry requirements and delays that come with such a choice.

However what happens when those without a Digital ID (which will definitely contain biometric data) cannot:

  1. Travel domestically;
  2. Apply for a bank account or loan;
  3. Obtain government benefits such as age or disability pension; and
  4. Enter certain places.

With regards to #1 and #4 above, this is no longer a theory but a reality for all Americans starting from May 7:

Do you understand why “border Barbie” rolled out a REAL ID mandate at this specific time? Do you understand what comes next? It will REALLY “make America great again”… I wonder who is going to get the contract…🙄 https://reclaimthenet.org/tsa-private-airport-security-biometrics-digital-id-expansion

A “REAL ID” can ONLY be one of the following two:

  1. An “Enhanced” Drivers license which has biometric data embedded in it; or
  2. A Mobile Driver’s Licenses (mDL) defined as: “digitized versions of the information on physical driver’s licenses and identification cards, and are stored on mobile electronic devices, such as smartphones”.

If you are an American who doesn’t have one of the above then you do not have a “REAL ID” and will require either a Passport or one of the alternatives outlined HERE to travel by air domestically once the REAL ID Mandate comes into effect on May 7.

In case you didn’t get it, let me say this again:

You will NOT be able to travel by air within your own country after May 7 if you don’t have an “enhanced” (i.e. biometric) drivers license, digital drivers license, Passport or one of the other documents stipulated in this list.

In case you didn’t know, a significant percentage of Americans do NOT have a valid Passport as they don’t travel overseas.

Data from 2021 suggests this percentage is as high as 67%:

More recent data from October last year suggests this percentage to be 49% which is still quite significant.

As you can expect this out of the blue announcement by Trump’s DHS Secretary was met with wide condemnation including from Ron Paul and Mike Yeadon:

There is no justification for imposition of a new form of biometric digital ID. We’re all already able to identify ourselves in numerous ways. Therefore, this new approach is not for our benefit. I argue that the entity demanding that you comply with this completely unnecessary requirement is so that they, the people I collectively call the perpetrators, can control absolutely everything about you. By everything, there is no limit to what the perpetrators can make you do, or prevent you from doing, once you’ve signed up for a global format, editable in real time, QR code-based digital ID. I ask you to join me in the following thought experiment. Imagine cash is no longer readily available and/or is no longer legal tender in most (or all) settings. You can only receive payments & make expenditures using money purely in a digital form. It doesn’t matter if it’s a card, an app or a bank transfer. Imagine further that the currency involved is no longer USD, GBP, EUR etc, but is eUSD, eGBP or eEUR, because the sovereign currencies went through a little difficulty, due to unpayable levels of debt that came to a head & resulted in systemic failures of all banks. During the “rescue” by the central banks of the world, your savings, deposits, investments, pension rights etc were legally seized by the senior creditors of those banks, because that which you thought was your property had previously been used as collateral by those failed institutions in securing loans. See David Rogers Webb’s free pdf book, “The Great Taking”. Private property laws have been changed in EVERY country in the world, so that you’re not the owner of any of “your” assets, merely the “beneficial owner”. The only time the distinction matters is under the circumstances I’ve described. I think the central banks & the leading countries are engaged right now in setting up the conditions where that circumstance occurs. It’s being planned and actively flown with this end as the objective. If there’s no cash & only CBDCs, and you’re required to present your digital ID before any transaction, you’ve disappeared & been replaced by a QR code. The matrix knows who you are, where you are, what you’re intending to buy, what else you’ve bought recently and what kind of citizen you’ve been. Imagine further that a new global health emergency is declared and you’re offered an intentionally harmful injection that they lie to you and call a “vaccine”. Imagine finally that compliance with the latest “vaccine mandate” is a condition for continuing validity of your digital ID. When you try to buy anything, your ID won’t permit the transaction. If you comply with the injections, eventually you will be injured or killed. If you refuse, you’ll be excluded from your own life. Is this what they’re driving towards? If they are, your last chance to head it off is to DECLINE DIGITAL ID. This one. None of the other ones have the properties required to control you. Why take the chance? If you do, you’re relying on the perpetrators never doing what I’ve outlined in my thought experiment. I don’t trust them not to do it & neither should you.

As of early October 2025, the actual enforcement of Real ID for US citizens travelling on domestic flights within the US appears to be as follows:

As I discussed in the Podcast, you need to understand that fundamentally, the Internet was NOT designed to be secure so that it is safe to store and transmit sensitive personal information through it.

Instead, it was designed to be resilient as its initial purpose was to be used as an emergency communication network in the aftermath of a major nuclear strike on the United States.

You need to understand that the Internet was NEVER designed for the exchange and storage of sensitive personal information. It’s kind of like a yacht was only ever designed to go on WATER. No matter how hard you try, you will NEVER make it go on dry land. Surely this is not rocket science? Even if you haven't interacted with UnitedHealth, there's a good chance Change still handled your data, thanks to its size — in large part thanks to unchecked corporate consolidation over the years. Per its HIPAA notice, the stolen data includes patients' health data, billing and insurance information, diagnoses, medications, test results, and more. All the while, UnitedHealth made $400 billion (yes, with a b) in revenue in 2024 — but couldn't seem to bother with basic cybersecurity practices, like MFA. Until executives of these companies are held personally liable and start going to jail for a looooong time (or worse), there is no incentive to do better… https://techcrunch.com/2025/01/24/unitedhealth-confirms-190-million-americans-affected-by-change-healthcare-data-breach/

The most common implication of having your identity stolen (as it is the most lucrative) is using that stolen identity for financial gain such as obtaining loans in your name or accessing government benefits.

I could very very easily write an entire post just on this topic, with more examples of such things actually happening than you would ever want to read, but here is just one fairly recent example from Australia:

For the non-Aussies, Services Australia is the (MASSIVE) federal government agency which is responsible for administering all government payments to people such as social security, the age pension, disability support payments and many others.

The above example is the perfect segue to the next very important risk in mandatory digital IDs controlling all aspects of your life.

Significant financial loss

Here are just two examples of fairly recent events in Australia.

This one happened this month:

Australians are calling for answers after suspected cyber attacks on multiple large superannuation funds.

Here is another even more recent event:

And here are my thoughts on it:

Don’t let anyone tell you that a Digital ID can prevent this. It will only make things worse. Much much worse!! As far as the “national technology reporter” of the taxpayer-funded ABC, I think you can probably figure out where she sits on the political spectrum through her looks alone (and a quick search of her name on any search engine will immediately confirm that). She is also clearly a ‘diversity hire’ because when it comes to actual practical tips for people to protect themselves, she didn’t mention the most obvious advice of all: USE 2FA (two factor authentication) on ALL your online accounts, not just banking. No exceptions (ever)!! (A lot of her other advice is also fluff at best and utter nonsense at worst and would have been relevant maybe 15 years ago before everyone started doing most of their banking on their smartphone). Ultimately though, you must understand that the Internet was NEVER designed for security. It was designed for resilience! Therefore, things like this will ALWAYS happen if the incentive is high enough (and it definitely is with online banking obviously). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MaKj5w5Wy3Q

This will continue happening with a Digital ID….only it will get MUCH WORSE!!

As I said in the Podcast, imagine if ALL your banking and investments were tied in to a SINGLE digital ID stored in a centralised database and that database was hacked (including by the ‘authorities’ themselves).

From a financial perspective, the implications are truly apocalyptic and that’s not a hyperbole!

National Security Risk

Those who are supposed to keep the citizens safe, can’t even keep their own staff safe:

What an absolute SHIT SHOW! More importantly: if these organisations couldn’t keep the personal information of their own staff secure, how can they be trusted with ANYONE else’s? Bottom line: The Internet was NEVER designed for the collection, storage, processing and dissemination of PII (Personally Identifiable Information) and there is NO way to make such use case safe for the Internet…and there NEVER (ever ever ever) will be!

If all the citizens identity is fully digitised (including biometrics) and stored in one central repository, this makes life so much ‘easier’ for a hostile intelligence service or terrorist organisation to steal EVERYONE’s identity in one fell swoop!

There are so many things these foreign Threat Actors can use these “crown Jewels”, including using the identity of real people (as opposed to fake ones) to gain access to highly sensitive networks and organisations:

Here is just one example:

Here is another example from the UK:

Digital ID Dangers: Whistleblower Alleges Massive Security Failures in UK’s GOV.UK One Login Digital ID System
A digital ID meant to unify access across government instead exposed a blueprint for bureaucratic negligence, highlighting the dangers of the push towards digital ID.

Religious implications/connotations

The notion of the “Mark of the Beast” and the requirement to accept one in order to “buy or sell” is fundamental aspect in the book of Revelations in the New Testament.

This may seem especially abhorrent to people but I nevertheless argue that this can be used to achieve the end goal of scaring the living daylights out of devout Christians from EVER signing up to a digital ID, no matter what pressure is applied on them.

Again, this may seem distasteful to you but it is NOT a lie! This is exactly what the famous verse in the book of Revelations discusses.

This may sound controversial or even abhorrent to some but I propose that when it comes to people with Christian religious beliefs (which form a significant portion of people in the former “free world”), these religious beliefs should be intentionally and aggressively utilised by presenting any attempt to introduce a digital ID as the “mark of the beast” as described in Revelations 13:16-17: And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. The messaging should be adapted to the fact that digital IDs will NOT be an actual mark on the body or something implanted into it (at least not initially) but it should still be presented as equivalent to said “mark of the beast” in every practical way (especially around the ability to buy or sell and engage in employment) and thus accepting it will have the same implications for a Christian person. For people with such religious beliefs, this messaging will resonate much more (and thus be much more effective much quicker) than any generic attempts to scare them off having their personal data on the Internet or even using the Internet altogether Controversial? Maybe. Effective? 100% GUARANTEED (imho at least). https://substack.com/@michaelginsburg/note/c-71810846

Here is a suggestion I received in response to the above:

Perhaps some White Rose style stickers with Revelations 13:16-17 quote on it? Stick it on bus shelters, outside Centrelink offices, inside the toilet cubicles, etc. How can we get influential preachers to start talking about this?

This was my reply in which I included some specific ad copy that can be used:

Interesting idea! I think it’s very important (crucial!!) to make a direct connection between digital IDs specifically and the “mark of the beast”. Here are a few suggested copies I came up with: Did you know the mark of the beast is real? It’s called a Digital ID. Find out more here: The Australian government is rolling out digital IDs. Signing up for one will mean damnation for your eternal soul. Find out more here: . Are you a Christian? Do you know what a digital ID is? Here is what you need to know: “And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Did you know the mark of the beast is coming soon to your bank account? Find out how and what you need to do NOW to fight back: Notice I make ZERO mention of CBDC and anything remotely related to it. This is by design.

Here is another potential copy for this angle:

Do you think this will resonate with Christians? Your soul. The ultimate aspect of you. And they want to take it from you. With…The Mark of the Beast! Digital ID: No buying or selling without it – Revelation come true! Will you choose to give yourself to the devil, willingly? Avoid the coming Mark! https://substack.com/@michaelginsburg/note/c-161683371

Environmental concerns

I personally am convinced that the “manmade climate change” narrative is absolute nonsense.

However, if that helps in getting resistance to digital ID amongst the ‘greenies’, I will absolutely run with it!

I personally am totally comfortable jumping on the “climate change” and “net zero” narrative and amplify it significantly if it helps stop the rise of AI and the infrastructure for a global rollout of digital ID. The world can have powerful AI or clean air – but not both. Fine. That works too as far as I’m concerned. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. If a narrative like “Digital ID will destroy the environment” will get the face nappy wearing ‘greenie lefties’ (who are up to their tenth ‘booster’ now) on board, I’m game! WHATEVER IT TAKES! I don’t need to like them the slightest or for them to like me. I just need them to do what is required…for WHATEVER reason that will work on them! https://ia.acs.org.au/article/2025/ai-data-centre-frenzy-threatens-govt-emissions-goals.html

The situation in Australia is particularly dire

This again could be another post all in itself but to keep things short, the government in Australia (the new “official testing ground of the New World Order” after Israel has served its part during the ‘vaccination’ rollout) is at the forefront of putting the ‘digital handcuffs’ on its citizens (which include me!) with a national digital ID scheme playing a major part in that agenda.

In May last year (2024), a very comprehensive Digital ID bill was pushed through the Australian Parliament by the local ‘branch’ of the ruling global regime and came into effect shortly thereafter in November.

Australian government unveils “world-leading” Digital ID system
From TOTT NEWS AUSTRALIA

One of the things that are included in the national Digital ID infrastructure in Australia is something called the “Trust Exchange”, which includes a digital wallet built-in!

Now obviously you don’t include a digital wallet in a national digital ID infrastructure unless you plan to put something in it. This is exactly what also happened in the EU!

But hey, we have nothing to worry about because the Australian Federal Finance Minister repeatedly said in Parliament that this is all “voluntary”, right?

After all, the government never ever blatantly lied (with a straight face) to Australians before, right? Of course not…

But wait, there’s more!

Late last year the “Online Safety Amendment (Social Media Minimum Age) Bill 2024” was pushed through Parliament with full bipartisan support.

The Australian Prime Minister was celebrating the passage of the “Social media reforms to protect our kids online” and the leader of the ‘Opposition’ (the supposed “alternative Prime Minister” who is supposed to present “alternative views”) did exactly the same:

Another person who was celebrating was Australia’s eSafety Commissioner, US-born Julie Inman Grant (a.k.a. “eKaren”) who only this month gave a big speech on “how age assurance technologies form an important part of a holistic approach to protecting children online.”

I am not going to give eKaren too much space in this piece (as she absolutely doesn’t deserve it!) but will just say that if she is celebrating, Australians should be very worried!

Shortly after the Social Media Ban bill was passed, it was made pretty clear that it will involve ALL Australians, regardless of their age, being subject to further ID requirements in order to access “designated online platforms”:

At the same time as all that was happening, MyGovID was “rebranded” to MyID:

As I discussed in the Podcast with Nicola, MyGovID was one of the login options available to login to the Federal Government’s online portal MyGov, the other being an email and Password.

As you can see, that option is very much still there except it is now called “MyID”:

As I mentioned in the interview, it is definitely not out of the question to imagine the option to login with a username/email and password being REMOVED and the Government’s digital ID becoming the ONLY option to login.

As I also said in the interview, making this change from a purely technical perspective will be trivial.

The government may even present this as an attempt to prevent instances such as this one:

Thank you for this. As a little side note: a few weeks ago I had my MyGov account hacked. This was NOT done through my devices as I had no records at all of my login details. When I called Services Australia to have it investigated, the nice young man that closed my account down said that I was lucky as I didn’t have anything attached to my account e.g. Medical records, Tax dept etc. He also commented that it was ESPECIALLY LUCKY that I didn’t have a DIGITAL ID. So much for high security!🙄

However, it will only make things worse.

Last month, I was served the following ad while watching a movie on an (ad-powered) streaming platform of one of Australia’s commercial TV networks:

And in the future, other places too.

About that “other places too” part, here is a current ‘initiative’ from the State Government of Western Australia:

Here is how parents in Western Australia can claim this government payment:

Submit your claim through ServiceWA.

For support and general information about ServiceWA, including assistance to download the app and set up MyID, visit…

We all understand how this works now….YES?

What happens if we fail to stop the rollout of Digital IDs?

While this scenario is still fictional for now, this will be very much “real life” if we fail to stop Digital ID and CBDCs are implemented shortly thereafter:

Now, instead of describing some imaginary scenarios, let’s have a look at one case study which is very much “real life”:

The Aadhaar biometric digital ID scheme in India, the biggest one of its kind in the entire world!

A glimpse into life under a biometric digital ID from where it already exists and is currently the biggest program of its kind anywhere on Earth…and it’s NOT in China despite what you may think. This was an excellent discussion all around which I highly recommend. @Courage Is The Cure did an outstanding job here. I hope to get @Paul G Conlon for an interview myself fairly soon. We have somewhat similar professional backgrounds so can get a bit deeper into the tech aspect which is very important for people’s full understanding IMHO…as well as how the solution can look like. https://rumble.com/v6elcm1-paul-g-conlon-the-case-against-digital-identity-on-relentless-episode-93.html

Here is the surprisingly good video (from which the above segment is taken) by Australia’s Public Broadcaster about the risks posed by a MASSIVE & MANDATORY digital ID scheme such as Aadhaar:

Hopefully you’ve paid close attention to the two videos above and understand that what has already been done in one country (and a “democracy” supposedly, not a “brutal dictatorship” like “CHAAAAIIIINNNNA”) can and WILL be done (or at least attempted) EVERYWHERE.

Let’s have a quick look at what is happening in Iceland:

India has Aadhaar and Iceland has Audkenni. https://www.audkenni.is/ https://island.is/en/electronic-id Different names but SAME dystopia: Iceland is already deep into digital ID integration: banking, healthcare, passports, and even driver’s licenses are all linked through a smartphone app. We unpack what this looks like in daily life and the silent erosion of freedom and privacy. There is a very good reason you know why “globalists” is one of the most common words we use to describe our collective (real) enemy… https://open.substack.com/pub/onwardpod/p/life-with-a-digital-id?r=yylj&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false

Or in Mexico:

“Just move to Mexico to escape tyranny” they said… Mexico has formally mandated the use of a new biometric-based digital ID system, making compulsory a previously voluntary identification mechanism known as the Unique Population Registry Code, or CURP. Under the new law, CURP IDs will now incorporate detailed personal biometric records, including fingerprints, iris scans, and photographs embedded within a QR code. The government plans a phased rollout, expecting full nationwide adoption by February 2026. https://www.gob.mx/presidencia/articulos/version-estenografica-conferencia-de-prensa-de-la-presidenta-claudia-sheinbaum-pardo-del-02-de-julio-de-2025 https://reclaimthenet.org/mexico-mandates-biometric-digital-id-by-2026

Or Malaysia:

FAILURE TO STOP THIS IS NOT AN OPTION!!

As unfortunate as it is for me to admit that but our side has scored ZERO meaningful wins in WWIII so far (now in its sixth year).

THIS CANNOT BE REPEATED WHEN IT COMES TO DIGITAL ID!

WE CANNOT FAIL IN STOPPING THIS!!

I very much and wholeheartedly agree with the spirit of what is saying here:

The hill to die on
Whatever the consequences, however inconvenient, however scary: resist, refuse, do not comply with digital ID

However, I also very much agree with the concerns and reservations Gabriel is expressing in this interview he gave to James Corbett:

I think the approach I am proposing regarding the use of fear campaigns, in order to ‘nudge’ the “Normies” to do the right thing on this issue, strikes a reasonable balance and most importantly:

It WILL work (guaranteed!) because fear campaigns ALWAYS work if executed correctly and with determination.

If we fail to stop Digital IDs, our (very) near future will indeed look like THIS:
