I love this comment on the link: For those needing to know, you should only ever use a TAA (United States Trade Agreements Act (TAA) of 1979) compliant CAC/Smart Card Reader. This is pretty common knowledge within the Defense IT area, in which I work as a contractor. I know plenty of US Mil and UK Mil and most dont know this! During Covid lockdown it was even possible to listen into UK MOD teleconference phone-in's (like Zoom conference meeting but only over the phone line) on more than one occasion, nothing really top secret but there are some pretty pissed off military personnel and criminals trying to smooth things over at the top of the UK. Edit. I will add that the British Govt was lying to the general public in their TV updates because the military phone-in's gave away stuff well in advance of it being announced on TV. This was not some reacting to events on a daily basis thing, this had weeks of planning before info was broadcast. Personally Covid seemed like the perfect opportunity to carry out planet wide psychological experiments on unsuspecting members of the public.

  It's a lose-lose scenario. Either you do nothing and the more easily influnced public goes "Why is nothing being done? Why didn't anyone prepare for this easily foreseeable crisis?" or you plan things and they go "It's all preplanned, it's a conspiracy in every level of the government!"

  So the 7 day rolling avg was being put out on the news, a 7 day rolling avg means the data lags by 7 days. Ergo, only once cases had spiked would the Govt react. This justifies their existence and actions, in a "I told you so" way. Had they used a smaller rolling avg that corresponded to the minimum time it took for symptoms to appear ie 2days, the Govt could have reacted more quickly to the spikes, put people into lockdown more quickly, reduced the number of infections and deaths and then got back out of lockdown more quickly. The Govt and medical experts have blood on their hands! However it also turned out that essential workers were the main spreaders. The Germans worked out within a few months it spread up to metres at 4 degrees C which is why Chilled Food processing factories got hit. It also survived on hard surfaces better than soft surfaces. Now whilst the lockdowns were occurring, the Police were catching up with criminals they couldnt locate in the UK. By "fixing" people to a location they could carry out final surveillance to tie up the lose ends with investigations, before getting them. Alot of this was done especially in London. The military knew everything the Govt was going to announce at least two weeks before it was announced and this was relayed down the chain of command with some stuff coming out during MOD phone in's when we got to listen to Chiefs of Staff and MP or two. If you took the NHS Covid App, so this brought out into the public domain tech abilities that have until now remained possible but secret. It was also used to shut down businesses, anyone could say they had covid, report it on the NHS phone app and then that would trigger all those people in the vicinity to have to isolate. You could shut down corner shops at their peak times, which has racist elements to it, you could also shut down other businesses during peak time, by just loitering at peak like in shopping centres, then go home and then say to the NHS phone app you have tested positive. At no point were photo's demanded by the NHS phone app and yet the app would have known the phone had camera facilities. An AI could then process the photo and verify its authenticity. This wasnt done, the tech was used for malicious reasons and to bring out in public a higher level of surveillance. Edit. Should I also mention the Prime Minister was telling everyone to get onto Zoom for their meetings and then later on a zero click zero day exploit in Zoom surface which conveniently had given GCHQ enough time to hoover up data off plenty of systems. LOL When will people wake up and realise the world is run by criminals?!?
