As small businesses disappear into the black hole of "pandemic restrictions," major international corporations devour what is left of the market. Those institutions, which Carroll Quigley referred to as future "corporate overlords," are rolling out new technologies just in time for the "Great Reset."

Just when you think technology couldn't get any more invasive

There's nothing angelic about Amazon's new wearable technology.

Halo, Amazon's new AI health bracelet, offers body composition analysis, tone of voice analysis, sleep & activity tracking. Presumably, this new tech is another convenient application to bring awareness to users of such things as too much body fat or if their tone is a bit too abrasive or "condescending."

While some individuals may benefit from both of these nudges, a recent review of Halo by the Washington Post (the unabashed purveyor of the loss of civil liberties) forcibly admits that Halo is the "most invasive tech we've ever tested." 

Authors Geoffrey Fowler and Heather Kelly wrote: 

Hope our tone is clear here: We don't need this kind of criticism from a computer. The Halo collects the most intimate information we've seen from a consumer health gadget – and makes the absolute least use of it. This wearable is much better at helping Amazon gather data than at helping you get healthy and happy.

Incidentally, Amazon's CEO Jeff Bezos owns The Washington Post.

So, we could reasonably expect the authors of this review, Fowler and Kelly, to soon have to look for other employment avenues. Either that or the review was a cleverly placed advertisement, designed to draw controversy to an app that could use some in house advertisement. And to target those readers who don't seem to care much about their own privacy.
