The major bank JPMorgan Chase is pushing ahead with the introduction of a biometric payment system that is to be
available to all US retailers at the beginning of 2025.
Customers only need to have their palms or faces scanned when they enter the store to make a purchase.
25 percent of US Americans and 50 percent of Canadian and British consumers are open to
the introduction of biometric payment systems.
David Birch, a consultant and commentator on global digital financial services,
wrote in his article for Forbes in April 2024:
"If the Americans knew how insidious this technology is, they would not support it in any form of application."
In retail, which is controlled by major banks, it boils down to the fact that it will only be possible
to buy or sell products that are digitally labeled.
And exclusively from buyers and sellers who are also digitally identified.
The digital marker thus turns out to be an absolutist instrument of power for the financial oligarchy.
Because anyone or anything that is not digitally marked is "out".
