CENTRAL CURRENCY |
New UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is a vocal supporter of exploring CBDCs |
Today, Rishi Sunak, who has been the most vocal member of the British government to voice support for CBDCs, took office as the new UK Prime Minister. Related: Bank Of England collaborates with MIT to research state controlled digital currencies Earlier this year, while serving as the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Sunak announced a joint task force of the Treasury and Bank of England to explore a CBDC. Watch the video here. Sunak said “The G7 is launching a set of policy principles for retail, Central Bank Digital Currencies, CBDCs.” Other members of G7 are the US, France, Italy, Germany, Canada, and Japan. “Central Bank Digital Currencies could be a digital version of money, a bit like a digital banknote that could be used alongside physical notes and coins,” he added. Sunak said that central banks and governments will collaborate in exploring a digital currency issued by a central bank. Among the things to consider will be safety and secure transactions, and providing a way for people to transact that is available to all and energy efficient. He stressed on the importance of exploring CBDCs. “The decision on whether to launch a Central Bank Digital Currency is for each country to make, and no G7 jurisdiction has yet made that choice,” Sunak said. “These decisions raise important questions about the reshaping of our economy...We’re excited to be taking a leading role with G7 members in publishing this exploratory work, bringing money and finance into the 21st century.” |

Australia considers centralizing digital ID |
In the wake of the Optus data breach, the Australian government is considering centralizing digital ID through the myGov or myGovID systems. During the Optus data breach, the personal information of about 10 million clients were exposed, including Medicare numbers, driver’s licenses, and passports. Optus is an Australian telecom with over 10 million subscribers. The breach raised questions about why businesses need to store so much personal information. As a result, the government is considering a centralized digital ID system. The government services ministry, led by Bill Shorten, will conduct a review to determine if myGov could be a viable option to avoid the need to present IDs multiple times. “Within the audit’s remit is to consider how myGov can deliver seamless services that will frequently involve private enterprise service providers,” Shorten’s spokesperson said to The Guardian. “This would prevent the need for citizens to provide sensitive data multiple times to multiple entities.” Meanwhile, finance minister Katy Gallagher is considering resurrecting a digital ID legislation that the previous government did not bring before parliament. The draft bill would expand the use of the myGovID system that is already used for ID verification while accessing Centrelink, Medicare, and the Australian Taxation Office. |
FACIAL RECOGNITION AND FINGERPRINTS |
Australia’s New South Wales wants to explore biometrics for digital ID |
The government of Australia’s New South Wales state has requested a parliamentary inquiry into the use of AI-based technologies like biometrics for digital IDs and facial recognition. The Minister for Customer Service and Digital Government Victor Dominello said that the inquiry, which will be conducted by the state's parliamentary Committee of Law and Safety, will explore how the use of AI in public service delivery could be expanded throughout the whole state. “AI has the potential to significantly improve service delivery and quality of life in a host of areas, including transport, health, and cyber security. It is imperative that we remain at the forefront of this ever-emerging space,” said Dominello. “Whether it’s facial recognition, use of biometrics to enable digital identity, or use of AI and algorithms for data analysis, we must strike the right balance between advancing technology and safeguarding privacy and security. The Committee will examine these issues in depth to help ensure our policies and legislative framework is fit-for-purpose,” he added. In an article published on LinkedIn, the minister insisted on the ethical nature of the inquiry. “I understand the reforming power of technology. I am also acutely aware of its destructive power – if we do not put guard rails in place. For this reason, I recently wrote to the Parliamentary Law and Safety Committee and asked for an inquiry into the ethical use of AI,” he explained. |

US citizens were given secret Covid "decree violation" scores |
Voter analytics firm PredictWise harvested location data from tens of millions of US cellphones during the initial Covid lockdown months and used this data to assign a "Covid-19 decree violation" score to the people associated with the phones. These Covid-19 decree violation scores were calculated by analyzing nearly two billion global positioning system (GPS) pings to get "real-time, ultra-granular locations patterns." People who were "on the go more often than their neighbors" were given a high Covid-19 decree violation score while those who mostly or always stayed at home were given a low Covid-19 decree violation score. Not only did PredictWise use this highly sensitive location data to monitor millions of Americans' compliance with Covid lockdown decrees but it also combined this data with follow-up surveys to assign "Covid concern" scores to the people who were being surveilled. PredictWise then used this data to help Democrats in several swing states to target more than 350,000 "Covid concerned" Republicans with Covid-related campaign ads. In its white paper, PredictWise claims that Democrats were able to "deploy this real-time location model to open up just over 40,000 persuasion targets that normally would have fallen off" for Mark Kelly who was running for Senate at the time and has now been elected. "PredictWise understood that there were potential pockets of voters to target with Covid-19 messaging and turned high-dimensional data covering over 100 million Americans into measures of adherence to Covid-19 restrictions during deep lockdown," the company states in the white paper. PredictWise doesn't provide the exact dates when this location data was collected but its white paper does note that the data was collected during Covid lockdowns and used during Senator Kelly's 2020 election campaign. State-level US lockdowns began on March 15, 2020 and Kelly was elected on November 4, 2020 so the data appears to have been collected during the first few months of this 11 month period. Location data and survey data are just two of the many types of data PredictWise claims to have access to. According to its white paper, PredictWise also tracks "telemetry data" (which is "passively sourced cell-phone data"), media consumption data, and unregistered voter data (which contains verified data on over 50 million unregistered voters that's updated daily and sourced from credit files and portal registration data). Additionally, PredictWise claims that "Crate&Barrel" (which seems to be a reference to the online furniture and home decor shopping portal Crate & Barrel) is one of the portal registration data sources it has access to. In total, PredictWise says its data "tracks the opinions, attitudes, and behaviors" of over 260 million Americans – a figure that represents 78% of the entire US population of 333 million. PredictWise uses the data it collects to create scores on 13 issue preference clusters and 7 value-frame, or psychometric clusters. These clusters use more than 30 million behavioral data points. PredictWise also claims to be able to use this data to predict the party of unregistered voters. Related: Many apps on your phone have pivoted to selling your location data to coronavirus researchers and others This mass surveillance of location data and lockdown compliance is just one of the many examples of the large-scale data harvesting that occurred during the pandemic. Private companies tracked the everyday activities of citizens, pushed remote learning surveillance technologies, increased surveillance in the workplace, and more. Meanwhile, governments ushered in numerous forms of surveillance such as forcing citizens to wear ankle bracelet trackers, secretly surveilling vaccine recipients via their phones, and combining vaccine passports with digital IDs. |

Every Satellite Orbiting Earth and Who Owns Them 18. Jan 2022
How many satellites are in space? There are thousands of satellites in the sky above us at this moment, orbiting Earth. Satellites have many uses for the government, military, and even civilians. They provide us the ability to have things like Internet access, television, GPS, and much more. They also have scientific purposes such as Earth and space observation and provide the means for high-level technology development. More than half of the 4,550 satellites orbiting Earth are used for communications purposes, and that number will continue to rise as tech billionaires look to bring high-speed Internet access to every corner of Earth.
But what we want to know is, who owns our orbit? The research team at Dewesoft analyzed data collected by the UCS Satellite Database, ESRI, and the Space Foundation to create a list of the 50 owners of the most satellites orbiting Earth. As of Sept. 1, 2021, SpaceX is leading the race, with their Starlink satellite program planning to send more than a thousand new satellites into orbit every year. SpaceX owns an incredible 36% of the satellites in orbit around Earth. Read on to see which governments, organizations, and companies own the most satellites in our orbit with this galactic graphic.

Who Owns the Most Satellites Orbiting Earth?
SpaceX owns and operates the most satellites orbiting Earth. The space company’s 1,655 satellites make up more than a third of the total satellites in orbit. Why are there so many SpaceX satellites in orbit? Elon Musk, the owner of SpaceX, has a goal of delivering high-speed broadband Internet access to almost everyone in the world through his new venture Starlink. SpaceX aims to launch a total of 1,500 Starlink satellites in 2021. SpaceX rockets bring tens of satellites up at a time, and it even set a record at the beginning of 2021 for bringing 143 satellites into Earth’s orbit on just one rocket. SpaceX now offers to transport other companies’ satellites to orbit on their rockets for the price of $1 million, which has opened up opportunities for even more commercial satellites to be launched into our orbit.

How Many Satellites Are in Orbit Around Earth?
Earth has 4,550 satellites in orbit, as of Sept. 1, 2021.
There are four types of orbits around Earth that you will find satellites in:
- low Earth orbit (LEO),
- medium Earth orbit (MEO),
- highly elliptical orbit (HEO), and
- geosynchronous orbit (GSO)/geostationary orbit (GEO).
More than 3,000 satellites are in low Earth orbit (LEO), which is where you will find satellites commonly used for communications and remote sensing satellite systems. This is where SpaceX Starlink satellites can be found, as well as the Internal Space Station and Hubble Space Telescope. The geosynchronous orbit (GSO)/geostationary orbit (GEO) has the second most satellites with 565, which are used for telecommunications and Earth observation. Satellites in GSO and GEO have orbital speeds that match Earth’s rotation; GEO objects orbit the equator, which gives them the appearance of being in a fixed position. The medium Earth orbit (MEO) contains 139 satellites and is used for navigation systems, such as GPS. The highly elliptical orbit (HEO) has 56 satellites that are used for communications, satellite radio, remote sensing, and other applications. This orbit differs from the others because it has an oblong shape and one end is much closer to Earth than the other.
The total number of satellites around Earth will keep increasing as SpaceX and other companies and entities continually launch satellites into orbit. SpaceX even has a goal of sending 42,000 satellites into space over the course of the next two decades!
What Purpose Do the Satellites Orbiting Earth Serve?
The satellites orbiting Earth serve many purposes. More than half of Earth satellites are meant for communications, including things like television, telephones, radio, Internet, and military applications. Most of these communications satellites can be found in geostationary orbit. Other uses for the thousands of satellites in the sky include Earth and space observation, Earth and space science, technology development and demonstrations, as well as navigation and global positioning. Below is a breakdown of the percentage of the 4,550 satellites that serve these main purposes:
- Communications: 63%
- Earth observation: 22.1%
- Technology development: 7.8%
- Navigation/global positioning: 3.6%
- Technology demonstration: 0.77%
- Earth science: 0.44%
- Space observation: 0.22%
- Space science: 2.3%
