The DNA Of A Surveillance State
We have been trained to accept QR code check-ins, and now vaccine passports are coming. But this is morphing more into a dystopian 1984 future. So for philosophical Sunday we look at this issue, in the light of China’s trajectory of control, and recent attempts by Police to access data for normal criminal investigations, not directly connected with the current emergency.

Crypto: Feet Of Clay?
The ABC recently reported that Nugget’s News CEO Alex Saunders is accused of not being able to repay money. The crypto influencer has allegedly told friends he is on repayment plans. Several tech companies have distanced themselves from Mr Saunders.
We discuss this in the light of the recent ASIC comments and the rise of CBDC. And importantly described our relationship such that it was with Mr Saunders, given we have over the years recorded a number of broad economic discussions for our two separate channels.
To be clear, we have NO commercial relationship with him, or his projects nor endorse his activities, wherever the truth may lay. And we have no inside information at all.
And of course we will not be making any further shows with him until the issues are fully resolved.

A HEX Rose Among Thorns?
I caught up with HEX advocate Jonno Katz. HEX is a token on the Etherium block chain, and it claims to be the First Blockchain Certificate Of Deposit. HEX has some interesting characteristics – though not straight forward on first blush.
We look at some of HEX’s features and also touch on the risks, and questions to ask.
As with all things financial related, its important to do you own research, and ensure you are dealing with people who are not pirates – as there are many out there.
And watch the fees! https://hex.com/
I am absolutely NOT endorsing HEX, to be clear and there is no commercial relationship here.
