Leaked Reports Show EU Police Are Planning a Pan-European Network of Facial Recognition Databases (The Intercept)
European police have long had access to fingerprint and DNA databases throughout the 27 countries of the EU and, in certain cases, the US. But soon, that investigator may be able to also search a network of police face databases spanning the whole of EU and the U.S.

Chinese government rolls out coronavirus ‘close contact detector’ app (BBC)
The “close contact detector” notifies users if they have had exchanges with any individuals who have been confirmed or suspected of carrying the virus. All users need to do is scan a QR code with an app like Alipay or WeChat. People at risk are then advised to stay at home or inform local health authorities.

Japan almost a ‘sixth eye’ as Five Eyes keep closer watch on Chinese military, North Korea
"Under an expanded ‘Five Eyes Plus’ framework, the group – which comprises Australia, Britain, Canada, New Zealand and the US – will work with Japan, France and South Korea to exchange data on a range of areas, including China’s military, North Korean ballistic missile launches, cybersecurity and outer space."

Ethnic Bioweapon - a type of theoretical bioweapon that aims to harm only or primarily people of specific ethnicities or genotypes.
"There are some reports, for example, that some countries have been trying to construct something like an Ebola Virus, and that would be a very dangerous phenomenon, to say the least. Alvin Toeffler has written about this in terms of some scientists in their laboratories trying to devise certain types of pathogens that would be ethnic specific so that they could just eliminate certain ethnic groups and races; and others are designing some sort of engineering, some sort of insects that can destroy specific crops. Others are engaging even in an eco- type of terrorism whereby they can alter the climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves." - William S. Cohen, US Secretary of Defense (1997)

Event 201 - A Global Pandemic Exercise (2019)
"The Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in partnership with the World Economic Forum and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation hosted Event 201, a high-level pandemic exercise on October 18, 2019, in New York, NY. The exercise illustrated areas where public/private partnerships will be necessary during the response to a severe pandemic in order to diminish large-scale economic and societal consequences."
Health experts issued an ominous warning about a coronavirus pandemic 3 months ago. Their simulation showed it could kill 65 million people. (Business Insider, 20.1.2020)
"Toner’s simulation imagined a fictional virus called CAPS. The analysis, part of a collaboration with the World Economic Forum and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, looked at what would happen if a pandemic originated in Brazil’s pig farms."

Analysis of Bilderberg Members Network “It pays to look closely at how Silicon Valley, Bilderberg, and AI fit together. On a practical level, AI offers enormous opportunities for everything from the commercial exploitation of data, the profiling of citizens/shoppers, and political control, so it obviously flutters the skirts of the Bilderberg bigwigs, whether they run HSBC, BP, the NSA, or Her Majesty’s Treasury. But the AI/Bilderberg symbiosis rests upon something deeper: the shared ideology of globalization—an ideology that resembles nothing less than a spiritual quest.” — Charlie Skelton in “Silicon Assets” (2015)

Another layer of opacity: how spies use AI and why we should talk about it
"Instead of reducing complexity for intelligence agencies, AI creates new data problems and will add another layer of opacity to already secretive organisations. At the same time, the general hype around AI presents a unique opportunity to learn about and weigh in on intelligence practice in real time. "
Augmentation as Artifice: A Palantir Look at AI
"AI is overrated. The role of machines is not to replace but facilitate human reasoning. Augmented intelligence (AuI) can help intelligence agencies navigate the data deluge by enabling human analysts to make data-driven decisions in a more transparent and accountable way."

Synthetic Telepathy: The Microwave Auditory Effect
The microwave auditory effect, also known as the Frey effect, consists of the human perception of audible clicks, or even speech, induced by pulsed or modulated radio frequencies. The communications are generated directly inside the human head without the need of any receiving electronic device. The effect was first reported by persons working in the vicinity of radar transponders during World War II. In 1961, the American neuroscientist Allan H. Frey studied this phenomenon and was the first to publish information its nature.
Research
Research Origin: Human auditory system response to Modulated electromagnetic energy - Allan.H.Frey (1961) (unpaywalled)
In his experiments, the subjects were discovered to be able to hear appropriately pulsed microwave radiation, from a distance of a few inches to hundreds of feet from the transmitter. In Frey's tests, a repetition rate of 50 Hz was used, with pulse width between 10–70 microseconds. According to Frey, the induced sounds were described as "a buzz, clicking, hiss, or knocking, depending on several transmitter parameters, i.e., pulse width and pulse-repetition rate.
Research Evolution: From the book "Military Neuroscience and the Coming Age of Neurowarfare" - by Armin Krishnan (2017):
"In 1975, an article by neuropsychologist Don Justesen discussing radiation effects on human perceptions referred to an experiment by Joseph C. Sharp and Mark Grove at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research during which Sharp and Grove reportedly were able to recognize nine out of ten words transmitted by "voice modulated microwaves". Since the radiation levels approached the (then current) 10 mW/cm² limit of safe exposure, critics have observed that under such conditions brain damage from thermal effects of high power microwave radiation would occur, and there was 'no conclusive evidence for MAE at lower energy densities'".

"Doctors and scientists say microwave strikes may have caused sonic delusions and very real brain damage among embassy staff and family members."
Research Foundation: Microwave Auditory Effects And Applications - Book by James C. Lin, PhD (1978) (PDF)
"The purpose of the book is to bring a body of research literature, scattered in a large number of journals and reports, into some compact form for the convenience of students and researchers. It will deal with selected experimental and theoretical topics in an interdisciplinary field which is 'undergoing explosive growth." - James C.Lin (1978)
Research Today: Mostly classified. The following from an independent researcher: Microwave Auditory Effect And Its Aplication - Research Project by Makoto Koike (2019)
Project Goal: "Microwave auditory effect refers to the phenomenon that pulse-modulated microwave induces auditory perception. The head acts as an acoustic transducer to convert the microwave into a theremoelastic wave, thereby invoking bone conduction. I am exploring the application of the microwave auditory effect onto a novel telecommunication system as well as a conspiracy theory that the novel telecommunication induces psychosis with symptoms of hallucination and delusion."
