With Your Help We Can Finish The Pyramid of Power Documentary Series!
Friends,
As many of you know, I am the researcher, writer, and narrator of the Pyramid of Power documentary series. This is the biggest project I have taken on over the last 13 years.
With your help, we have been able to produce 12 impactful episodes of The Pyramid of Power! Now, we need your help to produce the final 5 episodes!
Today I am launching an 8-day crowdfunding campaign to raise $20,000 USD to finish The Pyramid of Power!
First, for those who might not know all my work:
I have been working as an activist and freelance investigative journalist since 2010. I started writing books in 2015 and producing mini-documentaries around the same time.
As the years have passed my documentary work has expanded to producing full length documentary features, including my most recent Who Will Find What The Finders Hide? and The 5g Trojan Horse .
Now, I am 3/4th of the way through a 17-part documentary series that will highlight the people and institutions which manipulate and control our world, aka The Pyramid of Power.
***Help Me Raise $20,000 and Finish the Pyramid of Power!***
The money will go towards:
- Paying my incredible editor Becca Godwin
- Hiring a second editor to help finish the series
- revisiting the first 3 seasons for updates
- releasing a set of DVDs and/or USB drives with the Director's Cut of The POP
Perks of giving to the Pyramid of Power Fundraiser:
- Give ANY amount and you will be the first to watch our final episode when completed!
- Give $25 USD and you will gain access to the exclusive Pyramid of Power Behind the Scenes Telegram group!
- Give $150 or more and you will be the first to get access to POP DVDs/USBs, and a limited edition shirt!
Background on The POP:
During the 2018 Liberate Your Mind Tour, I gave a presentation noscriptd, The Pyramid of Power. This 2 hour presentation explored the mechanisms by which the vast majority of our planet falls prey to spiritual, mental, and physical slavery. The presentation examined the various institutions and organizations that make up this Pyramid and asked how we as individuals are supporting these systems. Finally, the presentation included proposals for potential solutions and ways to live without supporting systems that do not align with our values.
After the tour concluded, I decided to turn the presentation into a documentary. The idea has evolved into a 17-part documentary series which began premiering in May 2021.

🚨BREAKING: Apple Has New App Store Rules for NFTs and Cryptocurrency
Apple has announced updates to the App Store Review Guidelines, offering guidance for apps offering cryptocurrency and NFTs. The company has remained relatively quiet on blockchain technologies such as cryptocurrency and non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, but the new guidelines should help developers by spelling out what they can and cannot do.
Specifically, the changes involve the rules surrounding in-app purchases, and the company clarifies that cryptocurrencies can't be used as an alternative payment option.
The text for the rule has been changed to include the following:
"Apps may not use their own mechanisms to unlock content or functionality, such as license keys, augmented reality markers, QR codes, cryptocurrencies and cryptocurrency wallets, etc.:
The rule change is no surprise, as Apple only allows alternative payment systems in certain countries.
An addition to the 3.11 rule is as follows:
"Apps may use in-app purchase to sell and sell services related to non-fungible tokens (NFTs), such as minting, listing, and transferring. Apps may allow users to view their own NFTs, provided that NFT ownership does not unlock features or functionality within the app. Apps may allow users to browse NFT collections owned by others, provided that the apps may not include buttons, external links, or other calls to action that direct customers to purchasing mechanisms other than in-app purchase."
Many cryptocurrency advocates do not see this as progress for the space, but rather an attempt at co-opting it. Major cryptocurrency media outlet Bankless tweeted out, tongue-in-cheek, that:
"Apple just updated their App Store terms.
You can sell NFTs in your app AS LONG AS the NFTs don't unlock features.
Don't you see peasant?
Apple owns the land, not you. You are a digital serf. There are no property rights."

Blue Lotus is joining The Greater Reset 4: Co-Creation in Mexico!
Blue Lotus is the vibrant ringleader of the witty guerilla garden crew, The Vegilantes. They believe healthy produce should be freely available and combine the healing power of food and humor. Vegilantes may be spotted planting tomatoes behind fast food restaurants, rescuing seedlings from greenhouse composts or transforming vacant lots, because “Plants don’t need permission.” and neither do you. After the township interfered with a community garden created at her local park, Blue Lotus decided to plant free vegetables in her front yard. That idea grew into a produce trade stand to demonstrate mutual benefit to the neighborhood. It has blossomed organically into a diverse sidewalk market.

Dr. Robert Malone Issues Serious Warning About Fake Doctors on Telegram Infiltrating Medical Freedom Movement
🇺🇸@COVID19Up: Dr. Robert Malone has just confirmed on Gettr that the Telegram channel under his name with over 197,000 subscribers is a fake and not under his control.
Recently, according to Malone, the account has been re-posting from and commenting on Naomi Wolf's fake Telegram channel, while Naomi Wolf's fake has been re-posting from and commenting on Dr. Robert Malone's fake Telegram channel. 🥴
"I have been told by the authors of the Themis Report that we can expect to see the cast of characters exposed in this report continuing to post fake-outs, lies as the attempts to infiltrate and subvert the medical freedom movement are still going on," Malone said on Gettr.
"What a sad state of affairs - and the question is. who is paying the named infiltrators to do this work?"

Some content creators started using third-party payment bots to sell access to individual posts in their Telegram channels. This way, content creators could receive close to 100% of whatever their subscribers paid, which was great.
Unfortunately, we received word from Apple that they were not happy with content creators monetizing their efforts without paying a 30% tax to Apple. Since Apple has complete control over its ecosystem, we had no alternative but to disable such paid posts on iOS devices.
This is just another example of how a trillion-dollar monopoly abuses its market dominance at the expense of millions of users who are trying to monetize their own content. I hope that the regulators in the EU, India and elsewhere start taking action before Apple destroys more dreams and crushes more entrepreneurs with a tax that is higher than any government-levied VAT.
In the meantime, we at Telegram shall work to offer creators powerful and easy-to-use tools to monetize their content – outside of Apple's restrictive ecosystem.

50,000 BTC Seized from SilkRoad Hacker
@takebackourtech | SOURCE
Damian Williams, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, and Tyler Hatcher, the Special Agent in Charge of the Internal Revenue Service, Criminal Investigation, Los Angeles Field Office (“IRS-CI”), announced today that JAMES ZHONG pled guilty to committing wire fraud in September 2012 when he unlawfully obtained over 50,000 Bitcoin from the Silk Road dark web internet marketplace. ZHONG pled guilty on Friday, November 4, 2022, before United States District Judge Paul G. Gardephe.
...
U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said: “James Zhong committed wire fraud over a decade ago when he stole approximately 50,000 Bitcoin from Silk Road. For almost ten years, the whereabouts of this massive chunk of missing Bitcoin had ballooned into an over $3.3 billion mystery. Thanks to state-of-the-art cryptocurrency tracing and good old-fashioned police work, law enforcement located and recovered this impressive cache of crime proceeds. This case shows that we won’t stop following the money, no matter how expertly hidden, even to a circuit board in the bottom of a popcorn tin.”
...
While executing the September 2012 fraud, ZHONG did not list any item or service for sale on Silk Road, nor did he buy any item or service on Silk Road. ZHONG registered the accounts by providing the bare minimum of information required by Silk Road to create the account; the Fraud Accounts were merely a conduit for ZHONG to defraud Silk Road of Bitcoin.
ZHONG funded the Fraud Accounts with an initial deposit of between 200 and 2,000 Bitcoin. After the initial deposit, ZHONG then quickly executed a series of withdrawals. Through his scheme to defraud, ZHONG was able to withdraw many times more Bitcoin out of Silk Road than he had deposited in the first instance. As an example, on September 19, 2012, ZHONG deposited 500 Bitcoin into a Silk Road wallet. Less than five seconds after making the initial deposit, ZHONG executed five withdrawals of 500 Bitcoin in rapid succession — i.e., within the same second — resulting in a net gain of 2,000 Bitcoin.

Think You Can Spot A Deepfake?
@takebackourtech | SOURCE
A deepfake production made back in 2019, based on an alternate "reality" where the Apollo 11 mission fails and Nixon gives a speech.
When they ask you to point out the deepfake, were they talking about the moon landing too? 😂
https://moondisaster.org/
I wonder if there are deepfakes already in the wild today that are so good we can't tell the difference. Either way, I quite enjoy them for comedy purposes - check out ForkFaced.

A deepfake production made back in 2019, based on an alternate "reality" where the Apollo 11 mission fails and Nixon gives a speech.
When they ask you to point out the deepfake, were they talking about the moon landing too? 😂

I wonder if there are deepfakes already in the wild today that are so good we can't tell the difference. Either way, I quite enjoy them for comedy purposes - check out ForkFaced.

The Struggle
@takebackourtech
Hey peeps,
Recently I've been struggling to put out regular content, articles, and videos. I have massive respect for anyone who does this full time and consistently puts out good original content, as I aspire to do.
Part of the reason is because I've been focusing on Above Phone and have been switching computers like mad over the past 3 months. (just switched back to Arch Linux yesterday...)
I want to let you know that I'm not giving up and I have more important research to publish. I'm currently setting up workflows so you can expect fresh original content on a regular basis, along with articles & videos.
We're about to enter an tumultuous time period where we will be tested mentally, physically, and spiritually. The struggle is real, but we must believe in ourselves and each other. I for one am ready to uncover the truth, take action, and help in any way I can.
Are you feeling the struggle? How are you dealing with it, and what is your hope for the future?
- Ramiro

PREVIEW: They're not stopping at 5G
@takebackourtech | ORIGINAL
As part of my latest investigation I will be uncovering the push towards 6G and the disturbing trends that will come along with it.
The 6G vision is aligned with the United Nation's SDGs and seeks to support them directly. Activities will include embedding sensors in everything whether it be living or dead, tracking SDG indicators, and making AI-driven decisions on the fly, close to where the data is being collected.
Although 6G is framed as beneficial for underserved populations with things like health monitoring, access to digital money, and mobile learning, it also opens the door to a level of data capture never before imagined.
If you want to learn more about this, show us some love by following our channel and sharing.
