Kids: this is Henry Gurney School. Here there are no weekends, school holidays, end of class bells for you to look forward to. No parents picking you up. Just your cell after class. For the rest of your life.
Think, and know this before you do stupid shit.
10 years ago, your IC was for official use only
Now?
• Buy petrol = IC
• Buy groceries = IC
• More services = IC
Sounds normal? It is not 🚨
Our IC should prove our identity, not control our life
“Oh chill it is just groceries and pumping petrol”, “it is to stop foreigners from buying our petrol”, yes, for now. It opens a door that we can no longer close for deeper state control in the future
Every swipe = tracking what you buy, where you go, who you are
The risk and consequences are often underestimated or overlooked due to lack of awareness
❌ Loss of privacy
❌ Data leaks (we already have so many cases. No one apologised or took responsibility!)
❌ Govt control over what you can access and what you cannot
The more we normalize this, the more power shifts away from the people including you → to the state
Let’s spread awareness. Wake up 🇲🇾
