Amazon ‘Rekognition’ Being Marketed To Law Enforcement To Create Nationwide Surveillance Network

Amazon is marketing Rekognition for government surveillance. According to its marketing materials, it views deployment by law enforcement agencies as a “common use case” for this technology. Among other features, the company’s materials describe “person tracking” as an “easy and accurate” way to monitor people.

Amazon says Rekognition can be used to identify “people of interest,” raising the possibility that those labeled suspicious by governments will be seen as fair game for Rekognition surveillance. It also says Rekognition can monitor “all faces in group photos, crowded events, and public places such as airports,” at a time when Americans are joining public protests at unprecedented levels.

“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.” Revelation 13:16,17 (KJV)

Google started out as the newest search engine in 1998, created by two college nerds, but soon would come to rule the cyberworld to such a high degree that the mere act of looking something up in an online search is called ‘googling’ it. Well, little baby Google grew up, and powered by unheard levels of ad revenue, to spend billions on AI, billions on robot technology, and is making billions with lucrative government projects in the Pentagon’s top-secret unit known as DARPA.

Oh yeah, almost forgot, shortly after engaging with the Pentagon, Google dropped their famous corporate motto of ‘Don’t Be Evil‘. Hmm…wonder why they got rid of that? But I digress, we are here to discuss what’s happening now at the company that just eclipsed Google, the Jeff Bezos behemoth called Amazon.

From the LA Times: When Jeff Bezos launched Amazon.com in 1994, he gave himself a 30% chance of success — slightly better than the 1 in 10 odds for Internet start-ups.“That’s actually a very liberating expectation, expecting to fail,” he said to Time magazine when it named him Person of the Year in 2000. By then, sales had ticked past $1 billion, but the company had yet to turn a profit. Some analysts remained skeptical that Bezos could deliver on his plan to sell everything and anything. (“Anything with a capital A,” he told Time.)

But two decades after its launch, Amazon has conquered online retail, racking up $136 billion in sales in 2016. It’s also taken on cloud computing, tech gadgets and the entertainment world. With its blockbuster announcement Friday that it is buying upscale grocery chain Whole Foods, Amazon now plans to upend yet another industry: grocery stores.

As consumers increasingly rely on the Seattle-based e-commerce giant, it’s hard to remember a time when Amazon sold only one product: books. “There’s virtually nothing left that they haven’t touched,” said Kelly O’Keefe, professor at the Virginia Commonwealth University Brandcenter.

In 2018, Amazon is so big and so all -pervasive that fully comprehending their scope and influence is nearly impossible to achieve. Online there is no one larger, nobody. Offline, they own the Washington Post, Whole Foods, and are purchasing up other marquee name businesses left and right. And then there’s the home monitoring system called Echo.

Amazon Echo is a brand of smart speakers developed by Amazon. The devices connect to the voice-controlled intelligent personal assistant service Alexa, which responds to the name “Alexa”. This “wake word” can be changed by the user to “Amazon”, “Echo” or “Computer”. The device is capable of voice interaction, music playback, making to-do lists, setting alarms, streaming podcasts, playing audiobooks, and providing weather, traffic and other real-time information. It can also control several smart devices acting as a home automation hub. (read more on Wikipedia)

Echo is the hardware, and Alexa is the software, that’s easy, right? Well, it seems that Alexa has been listening to every word spoken in the homes that Echo is installed in, recording everything she hears, and then storing it over on Amazon’s cloud service.  In short, in millions of homes all across America right now, all their conversations are being monitored and recorded.

That’s brings us to Amazon’s latest venture, Rekognition.

Released officially in November of 2017, the official Amazon press release said this: “Amazon Rekognition today announces three new features: detection and recognition of text in images, real-time face recognition across tens of millions of faces, and detection of up to 100 faces in challenging crowded photos. Customers who are already using Amazon Rekognition for face verification and identification will experience up to a 10% accuracy improvement in most cases. Customers can also detect, analyze, and index up to 100 faces (up from 15) in a single image. With this improvement, you can accurately capture demographics and analyze sentiments for all faces in group photos, crowded events, and public places such as airports and department stores.” (read the rest on Amazon)

With the bugs all worked out, Amazon has taken the next step, partnering with law enforcement to create a real-time facial recognition surveillance system.

From the ACLU: “Amazon is marketing Rekognition for government surveillance. According to its marketing materials, it views deployment by law enforcement agencies as a “common use case” for this technology. Among other features, the company’s materials describe “person tracking” as an “easy and accurate” way to investigate and monitor people. Amazon says Rekognition can be used to identify “people of interest,” raising the possibility that those labeled suspicious by governments — such as undocumented immigrants or Black activists— will be seen as fair game for Rekognition surveillance. It also says Rekognition can monitor “all faces in group photos, crowded events, and public places such as airports,” at a time when Americans are joining public protests at unprecedented levels.” (read the rest on ACLU.com)

VISIT THE NTEB MARK OF THE BEAST STORY ARCHIVE

In conclusion, what does all this mean? It means that what used to be far-flung science fiction stories are now everyday reality that gets advanced updated about every 6 months. The marketing is so warm, so fuzzy and so ‘consumer friendly’ that the true intent slips right past most people, even past most Christians. Especially the ones that attend churches who focus on laser lights and rock music instead of teaching on Bible doctrine and prophecy.

The Mark of the Beast system is not only being created, it is well underway and nearing completion. Soon, the only thing that will be missing with be the Beast himself, but he’ll arrive in the time of Jacob’s trouble after the Pretribulation Rapture of the Church.

And when he does, he will be quite please to his system all ready and waiting for him to take over.

Please Give A Hearty End Times Welcome To ‘Thermonator’, The World’s First Flamethrower-Wielding Robot Attack Dog Straight Out Of Revelation

While it may sound like an episode of Black Mirror, Americans can now purchase a flamethrower-wielding robot dog online from Throwflame called Thermonator.

Have you ever spent a hot, summer afternoon at a water park? I have, and it’s one of my favorite things to do. There is this curious moment that takes place after you enter into the water, right before the thundering force of the jets carry you forward. In that brief, little space, you are calm and peaceful, luxuriously basking in the cool water. Then you reach the main current and woosh!! you go at what feels like a million miles per hour. This is where we are right now with the incoming tide of AI and robot technology, in that brief little moment before the avalanche sweeps us inexorably forward into only God knows what’s coming next.

“Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.” Habakkuk 1:5 (KJB)

The opening years of the 20th century was an overwhelming outpouring of information and global travel and exploration, exactly as Daniel had foreseen in chapter 12 of his book. In America, so many new things were being invented that we felt that nothing was out of our reach, and that we were on the verge of create a thousand year reign of peace and prosperity. Many of the Christian scholars were amillennial, secure in their thinking that we were ‘bringing in the kingdom’. Then WWI hit, and the world watch as all that technology we had just invented was now being used to wage war as never seen before in entire annals of human history. Soldiers literally went insane watching the ‘benefits of modern technology’ helping them to live a ‘better and more prosperous life’. Now here in 2024 we have flamethrower-wielding robot dogs named Thermonator here to meet all our flamethrowing needs as Hell continues to enlarge itself. Check your watch, Christian, it’s later than you think.

Meet the Thermonator: First ever flamethrowing robot dog that shoots jets of fire up to 30 feet hits US market

FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: Ohio-based Throwflame opened sales for its ‘Thermonator’ Tuesday, selling its 37-pound quadruped machine for $9,420 that is legal in all US states except Maryland. A demonstration video shows a Thermonator creeping and jumping through a forest before torching its surroundings with a 30-foot jet of fire spewing from a flame thrower on its back. Throwflame, based in Cleveland, claims to be the oldest flamethrower manufacturer in the US.

The company released the first-ever full-sized, commercially available flamethrower in 2015, which shoots flames up to 50 feet. ‘This unregulated flamethrower sparked a significant media response relating to legality,’ Throwflame shared on its website. ‘However, flamethrowers remain federally unregulated. This means anyone can buy one without background checks or a waiting period.’

Thermonator appears to be designed like most quadruped robots but has one of Throwflame’s devices attached to its back. The robot dog boasts a variety of cameras and sensors, allowing it to autonomously move throughout its surroundings and find targets to set ablaze. The machine is remotely operated – the demonstration video shows a handler controlling it with a smartphone.

Social media users have weighed in on the machine, comparing it to an episode in the fourth season of Black Mirror titled ‘Metalhead.’

The episode explores what could happen if these machines turned on us, revealing the terrifying quest for survival in a world where robo-dogs can outrun and outsmart humans. X user Rob Sheepe posted: ‘Some real-life Black Mirror ‘Metalhead’ terror right here. How is this legal?’

However, Maryland is the only US state that bans flamethrowers – California requires a permit to own one. Possessing or using a flamethrower in Maryland is punishable by a $250,000 fine and up to 25 years imprisonment.  In 2015, Congress introduced a bill that would treat flamethrowers like machine guns, but was stalled and later dismissed.

Joe Biden Is Right Now Considering Declaring A ‘National Climate Emergency’ That Would Give Him Hitlerian Powers Over The American People

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The Biden White House is considering declaring a ‘national climate emergency’ to block American energy development while appeasing its extremist environmentalist donor base.

Oh, how I wish this was coming to you today from The Babylon Bee, but sadly it is actual news that is actually happening in Washington right now. Pretend president Joe Biden is being told by third term president Barack Obama that he needs to declare a ‘national climate emergency’, and Biden is actively and seriously considering doing it. Should he declare a national climate emergency, Biden would be granted powers similar to the pandemic where the government suspended the Constitution for ‘the greater good’. Sounds more like the Greater Reich to me.

“But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.” 2 Peter 3:10 (KJB)

With each passing day, if you are following events as they unfold, an orchestrated Joe Biden victory in November grows more and more likely, as prison time for Donald Trump gets closer and closer. I don’t know for sure that that will happen, but that’s currently how things are trending. As outrageous as it may seem for me to site here and tell you that the Democrats just might be planning a coup on the back of a ‘national climate emergency’, I ask you to remember the events that began 1,500 days ago today. We call it the pandemic, and it looks like they are getting ready to lock us down again for ‘the greater good’ of the Earth. We have been telling you for a few years now that the New World Order comes in on the back of Climate Change laws, mandates and regulations. If it happens, when it happens, you may consider that to be Day 1 of the new Civil War.

Biden Considers Ridiculous ‘Climate Emergency’ Declaration

FROM NATIONAL REVIEW: Top advisers to President Joe Biden resumed talks on declaring such an emergency. The goal would be to suspend offshore drilling and oil exports to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, according to Bloomberg.

Top advisers to President Joe Biden resumed talks on declaring such an emergency. The goal would be to suspend offshore drilling and oil exports to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, according to Bloomberg.

Bloomberg states explicitly that the administration knows such a declaration wouldn’t actually help the environment. The real purpose of the announcement is that it “would galvanize climate-minded voters.” This wouldn’t even be the first time this month Biden sacrificed America’s energy interests in the name of his reelection prospects.

“President Biden has treated the climate crisis as an emergency since day one and will continue to build a clean energy future that lowers utility bills, creates good-paying union jobs, makes our economy the envy of the world and prioritizes communities that for too long have been left behind,” White House spokesperson Angelo Fernandez Hernandez told Bloomberg.

In Biden’s head, it’s also not the first time he’s declared a climate emergency.

In an interview last year with the Weather Channel, Biden falsely said that he’d “already done that” when asked whether he intends to declare a climate emergency. The inaccuracy was so blatant that his statement was fact-checked as false by CNN, which is not exactly known as a right-leaning news source. CNN later blamed Biden’s false statement on “the pressure he’s under” to avoid insinuating that the president could possibly be in a state of mental decline. READ MORE

Healthy Third Grade Teacher Proudly Took The COVID Vaccine For Free Krispy Kreme Doughnut, Developed Congestive Heart Failure And Died Weeks Later

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Amanda McCurry, a longtime third-grade teacher at Oak Park Elementary School, died suddenly on Sept. 17, mere months after taking the COVID vaccine in exchange for a FREE Krispy Kreme doughnut

This is a heartbreaking story, and I think by this time, we all know people who took the COVID government injection, got sick shortly after and then died. This is why back in 2020, we began warning people, pleading with them actually, to not take the COVID vaccine, and yet the vast majority of people did. Today we bring you the story of Amanda McCurry, a beloved third grade teacher, who dutifully did as her government demanded, and paid for it with her life.  She died suddenly.

So they poured out for the men to eat. And it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they cried out, and said, thou man of God, there is death in the pot. And they could not eat thereof.” 2 Kings 4:40 (KJB)

Back in 2021, Fox News 54 reported that “Decatur City Schools is mourning the loss of a beloved teacher. Amanda McCurry was a longtime third-grade teacher at Oak Park Elementary School, as well as an AHSAA volleyball official. Mrs. McCurry was honored by WZDX as a Valley’s Top Teacher in 2019. Staff and students had nothing but nice things to say about her” She was loved by students and her peers alike, and put everything she had in to the job she had as a school teacher.

But Amanda was an early adopter of the COVID vaccine, as we see by her Facebook timeline which is still up. Let’s take a walk through her timeline to see if we can put the pieces together.

  • March 23rd: Mrs. McCurry posted a link to a promotion offered by Krispy Kreme Doughnuts for a FREE glazed doughnut after you show them your COVID vaccination card. She had just gotten hers.
  • July 30th: she posted this: ” I have been having some heart issues since April. I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure because my ejection fraction (pumping) of my heart was found to be 25%, it’s supposed to be between 55-60%. I had no blockages when they did the heart cath.” She went from no health issues to a 25% heart pumping percentage in mere weeks after receiving the government COVID injection. Coincidence? You tell me.
  • September 3rd: she posted “Bring on the vaccine mandates, support America!!”
  • September 8th: Amanda posted a link to an article regarding mandatory COVID vaccine requirements that said in part “There will be new components that sure, will of course impact people across the country, but we’re also all working together to get the virus under control, to return to our normal lives,” she added. When asked if the new steps will affect Americans’ lives, Psaki said, “it depends on if you’re vaccinated or not.”
  • September 17th: beloved teacher and COVID vaccine advocate would be dead.

I personally know people who died this way, and people who didn’t die but became seriously injured by the vaccine. Our hearts go out to the McCurry family, and we hope this article serves as a warning that you cannot trust your government when they tell you a hastily-produced ‘vaccine’ that’s rushed through with hardly any concern or consideration for safety is the only thing that will save you. This was the greatest hoax in modern-day history, it was done purposefully and with malice aforethought. Just be ready when they try it again, because they absolutely will.
