i’ve been seeking encryption for years, and the smartest tech guys i could find to hire never had a clue (which really annoyed the hell out of me by the way). They still don’t.
Then i spent two years in the American States Assembly working to restore the originally intended American government; during which time i (diligently!) corrected my status to Lawful American and living woman on the Land and Soil of California and drafted and recorded legal documents stating such, which i sent by registered mail to every alleged government agency - because silence is consent in maritime law - the law of the crown.
If we do not reject their sneaky contracts on paper, we agree by default to be their slaves; likewise, if they do not respond or object after three Notices from me, then what i state stands as truth in a court of law. i am now a free woman living on the land, no longer subject (subject - the crown again?) to their laws, statutes, taxes, regulations, licenses, registrations, etc. Sure they still try to trick us at every turn, but i keep a formidable paper trail in real paper, which is the one thing that stands strong in a court of law.
Keep a paper trail, friends. When they erase your data, you have several pounds of tangible proof…
Anyhow - i am no longer classified as a “citizen”, which Britain defined as chattel to be managed, confined, and controlled when they co-opted the Constitution for the united States of America in 1789 (note the capitalization and specific wording - this is what our country was originally called before the crown and the vatican split it off into the very corporations that torture and steal from all of us every day, with names that sound the same, like USA and US and United States and on and on…)
US, USA, United States, United States of America, Constitution of the United States of America - all corporate look-alikes; don’t fall for it!
Nobody noticed the slight shift in wording and capitalization that we now have in our Constitution (by our silent consent, i will add!) - and nor would i - except for my two year investment in Common Law and the hundreds (yes, for real) of Notice letters to the people (i mean criminals) behind the alphabet soup cabal.
Now i bought the Above Phone - but i’ve been using an Apple iphone and MAC computer for 20 years. Android is some sort of mutant species couched in fancy, and i am not having fun.
But i can’t give up.
Sometimes we’re just too deep into something to quit, and thus goes the story of my life…commit and follow through.
Commit and follow through.
My first lesson at Above Phone has been almost 4 hours so far, split into 2 appointments. i still have hope, and yes i will book another “migration lesson”, but honestly they’d be better off giving me wings to migrate to a nice warm place carrying a trailer on my back than trying to teach me this new Android phone. (i’m actually my MAC computer right now.) So…
i got this new fully equipped encrypted android thing with way too many app’s on it, where you swipe fast in one direction or another (and good luck guessing which) but then only from the middle of the screen up for this; but for that it’s swipe all the way from bottom to top…please don’t ask me which is which, because i’m busy happily typing to you on my computer with a screen and font i can actually see, unlike these new phones with their tiny black screens.
OMG, i’m already EMF sensitive and the only thing keeping me alive is my Quantum Sound Therapy scalar-soundwave technology that transmute harmful radiation and creates a coherent home environment - but nothing is strong enough when i have two phones and two computers open and am struggling to hear all of them at once and get everything effectively in one place.
an aside: the Above Phone people have integrity, and in my world nobody learns greek or japanese overnight, so please don’t give up yet…
Online meetings give me severe headaches as it is, and after two hours every micro-processor in my brain has crashed and my whole head burns and hurts. My work with the American States Assembly was many hours a day for two years, and now there’s this very real struggle to use this product, and two hour trainings at my own expense, on top of everything else online.
Yikes, i do brain therapy, and i can’t live by my own principles in this emerging world, which is a terrible battle. But at least i know what went wrong in my head and how to fix it - but c’mon now, every day and night?
(NB: when you don’t see me for a couple days or more, know that i’m quietly busy rebuilding my brain! i have nothing to give you when my brain fries out and quits.)
Like you, i too can forget to log out, drink water, and step outside…and when i’m deep in focus i too forget to breathe!
We’re all stuck in this same devious catch-22…
Drink more pure structured water, and take breathing breaks in your day!
i also bought a computer encryption program from Glenn Meder at Privacy Action Plan - so i’ve been trying (ahem, and hahaha) to install those programs on my MAC, but alas i may never get beyond burner emails which are anonymous so when you sign up for webinars and buy products online, you use a different burner email for each and become much harder to track and hack.
Hackers and scammers go for the low hanging fruit (which in our sheer ignorance, many of us have become) so the first goal is to make your email and phone number inaccessible to them. i’ve begun.
i also changed my passwords using Glenn’s formula, and now most of them are strong. There’s a program for that too, but no space in my head to care.
So back to the phone, for that’s what’s keeping me up at night - i worry that i’ll have to keep two phones and two computers forever and files in too many places for me to remember or pull up what i need on the right machine.
i learned how to make calls and text on Above Phone - but where do reply texts go if i’m not watching them come in? How do i find them? And how do i check messages if somebody calls me back? And, isn’t that the point of communication?? (maybe they can explain this in the telegram group, and it won’t cost so much to just get a quick hint)
Dear Self, take a breath, Luke will be there next time you schedule yet another migration call, and maybe one day we’ll all be laughing in Mexico over how many years it took that sweet young man to help me start using my phone. And maybe i’ll be teaching my friends, if they haven’t been hacked to pieces by then.
Stay tuned - Soon i’ll be using Jitsi, the replacement app for Zoom and facetime. Maybe i’ve learned something in my hours with Luke after all, but only time will tell. Meanwhile, i have one hot tip for you from him:
YOU too can get encrypted messaging through what’s called an “XMPP” or “Jabber account” without buying a new phone; there are 4 companies offering that right now. The only one i remember is 404.city so try that. The other 3 leads are in the texts i don’t know how to find yet. (laugh track on loud please)
As we sign off for this moment, i exit giggling because i am the last people ever qualified to teach you tech, but until you get encrypted, i’ll be all alone on my floating raft in the middle of the tech-ravaged seas.
And by the way, “people” is the actual word for one or more of us. “Person” means the same as citizen-slave in maritime law. Don’t ever agree to that. You are a “people” if you are free.
And throw out ALL your black pens - use blue or purple.
In law, black ink signifies death, and every time we sign in black we agree even more enthusiastically to the citizen status we were assigned at birth by the vatican and the crown, and when we are dead in their eyes, they can take any and all our stuff…
…see it now?
dear yolanda, i love your humaness, your humor and your determination to be the you that is FREE! no matter what you are never alone out there on the raft...let's just change that wild and loving ocean to where we be a great big beautiful BARGE our fires lit again and again. i truly salute all the hours of untangling you've done on the gordian knot you intrepid soul you. as for me...i seek to keep my Source Connection strong and steady as i get still...just stopping. i have a resin sculpture of a kuan yin standing serenely between to very intense rising dragons. she followed me home almost 20yrs ago when i first moved here from the city. i knew then and i know now...she will show the way. people around me are dying every day...the next 6months...oy and vey, what else can i say...except i'm happy to be holding hands with you darlin brave and beautiful girl.
Wow, YPH (or should I call you yph now?), I learnt so much from this piece on tech from a non-techie, and that thing about "the US", the "United States", in capitals etc. I'll have a few questions for you re yer 'phone soon but tell me do you intentionally minuscule the "i" when you write in the first person? eg. "while i nap"
