Let's Get the Focus BACK to The Greater Reset Activation (aka The People's Reset):

Friends,

After a short break, The Greater Reset is Returning!

In January 2022, we will gather once again with a continued focus on ACTIVATION, on taking concrete steps in your life to create more freedom and joy. For our 3rd meeting our theme will be INTEGRATION!

How can we EDUCATE ourselves and those around us? How can we ACTIVATE our communities by INTEGRATING the solutions and concepts proposed?

This time around we will be having in person events in Buda, Texas and Morelia, Michoacan, Mexico!

In Buda we are meeting at the Inspired Minds Art Center (121 Main St. Buda, TX) and in Morelia we will be meeting at the Hacienda Camelinas (Perof. Paseo de la Republica 95, Morelia, MX)

But first, we need your help!

Help Us Decide the Speakers for TGR3! - That's right, we want to hear from YOU! Fill out this form to submit your speaker requests! Here are the criteria:

1. They MUST be solutions focused. There are lots of great researchers and people who understand the problems. There are fewer people actively working on solutions. We ONLY want the speakers who are going to present solutions.

2. Hands On! This time around we want more speakers focused on practical, hands on knowledge.

That's it! Submit your suggestions here: https://auto.above-agency.com/form/19

See you in January for
#TheGreaterReset!

In love and peace,

The Greater Reset Team

#TBOT Blog | #TBOT Channel | #TBOT Chat
Official Community | Odysee | Hive | Minds

Today we begin #TBOT's educational module on phones, starting with an in-depth look at how our phones track us. I think we all have an intuitive sense that this happens, but do we know exactly how?

By the end of this 5,500+ word article and hour-long video, you will understand how operating system level tracking works. You will see how mobile apps track users and which companies are behind it. Lastly you will see how big-tech and telecom companies cooperate with government agencies.

Members of the #TBOT community share their own mobile experiences on traditional abusive operating systems:

I have an old Lenovo (Android) tablet here that was giving some trouble with WiFi. So I reset my network and app settings on it. This made some crappy Google apps re-apppear that I had previously disabled. So when I disabled (remove is not possible) Google agenda, it AUTOMATICALLY send out an email via my gmail address. The email was sent to my wife saying "Mark cancelled an appointment". It was the only reminder that I had in that agenda and it was our anniversary on the date that I first met my wife. So my wife gets a message from Google that her husband has cancelled an anniversary date. Hilarious.

.. browsing trough my phone files today, and the message pops up
The contents of this folder will no longer be accessible due to system restrictions introduced in Android R. Remove your personal files from this folder asap..
I guess more system restrictions mean less control by user 😁 .. which brings more significance to a OS switch .. asap
My dear nodes ❤️

I've been filming different projects nonstop and am finishing the above.phone tech demo tomorrow.

Part of this demo is being able to demonstrate the new way of living across the different tech solutions, and so a Jitsi video conference is planned tomorrow Oct 3, 2021 at 12:00 PM UTC-6 (Central Standard Time).

This is an open invite to anyone to come join and share a moment together. The call won't be long, just about 15 minutes or so, we'll chat about everything and nothing - I may pose questions to everyone.

Parts of this call may be used in the official above.phone launch video. Please enable your camera or microphone only if you're okay with being published online.

You can join by using the mobile app, or through your web browser, use the following link.

Hope to see you there!

Join here: https://jitsi.above.im/takebackourtech

Parts of this call may be published, join if you are okay with that :D
What a wonderful call we just had, thank you to the beautiful nodes that joined ❤️

We got to talk more about:
- How to have phone calls and video calls without needing a SIM card or phone number
- The potential future of being cut off from cellular networks
- More info on degoogled operating systems
- Some awesome alternatives to proprietary apps
- More about the above.phone and services included with the above privacy suite

I enjoyed this call so much, let's keep doing them. I'll be on the road this month but will make time during the stops to get on call and brainstorm new tech and how to use it effectively with y'all.

Stay tuned.

PREVIEW - A New Way Of Living: A Functional Mobile Privacy Framework
Official Community | Telegram Channel |Telegram Chat Odysee | Hive | Minds

Being released next week, here is an excerpt from the next #TBOT article.

Share & subscribe to the mailing list at takebackourtech.org

Why use operating systems and apps that exist only to track us? We're just a unique number to them, categorized by likes, dislikes, and the likelihood that we line their pockets.

Why use a cell service that treats us like criminals? Sharing our data without control or oversight to a secretive shadow government.

Their networks would be nothing without our thoughts and ideas running through them, giving them life. We give them power with each second we spend in their system.

Soon their greed will turn into wrath, and they will exert their will to get us to accept the latest demand. Since all data flows to them, we could spend eternity swimming upstream in a river of data. Or we could find a new way of living.

...

1: Do not rely on or trust telecommunications providers.

As we have seen from our research, our cellular providers do not exist for our benefit. If you've read the first article in the series, then you know they do not provide up to date information on how long our records our retained. They also do not inform us that our data is being shared with secret programs that cannot be held accountable by anyone. They're more likely to cooperate with government and law enforcement than support the customers who pay them.

Given this, it is no surprise to see restrictions being rolled out where people are denied access to mobile service based on their health status.

Earlier this year in Punjab Pakistan, local authorities decided to block the SIM cards of all unvaccinated individuals.

In Mexico, laws were passed which require individuals to submit biometric data such as fingerprints, iris scans, and facial scans.

If our cell sevice is contingent on external factors such as our health records, then those who are unwilling to cooperate should make plans to communicate outside of these networks
.

Changes In Mindset
No phone call or text message should be assumed private. Everything can be logged or gathered as it passes through the cell networks.

This week we've got two amazing interviews. Today I will be interviewed by Ryan Cristián, Founder & Editor of The Last America Vagabond. We're going to talk about new solutions in the mobile privacy space, especially the above.phone - there may be a live tech demo ;)

Tomorrow I will be interviewing the CEO of Beechat Network, a company that is pioneering free & open peer-to-peer solutions for radio communications.

Later this week, the official tech demo for the above.phone will be released!

I'll leave Friday for the Activation Tour, joining Derrick Broze and Miriam Gomez of The Conscious Resistance Network in talks and good works across the Eastern US.

We are designing shirts to have available on the tour, here's something we're working on. Would Tee (the #TBOT mascot) look good on a shirt?

TBOT is my favorite Telegram channel. And I belong to gobs of them. Favorite because it is PRO-ACTIVE. I was observing my compulsion to keep reading the endless flood of horror, but I kept doing it. TBOT and RR snap me out of my trance. THANK YOU RR!!
