@GutterPoetry There also seems to be an assumption that you are only a Human being if you are also a #MobilePhoneZombie there are still quite a few people, admittedly tending more to the grey haired that don't walk around permanently attached to a "#Smartphone" if I were to go full Tin foil Hat I'd suspect it is yet another attempt to cull the old & infirm to save on Pensions & NHS IIRC they are currently gradually switching off Landlines that have backup power in the event of the more often occurring power-cuts which like the #IDiocy of Government #IDCard more than probably outsourced to a contributing "Lobbyist", #IDCards will have a non zero #bodycount as old people will not be able to call the emergency services when they need it & in the case of the #BritCard when the Database is inevitably stolen/leaked , if not just sold to raise funds first. It will cause many of those who have had their whole lives stolen to die by a wide variety of causes. Not that I have much hope of it being stopped but I thought I'd get my #IToldYouSo to the world RANT(Rage Against Numpty Twats) in on 26/9/25 so that eventually I can claim full house on my #CassandraComplex😜 but in case it is one of the electronic petitions not hit by the Government auto demagger on inconvenient truths the petition currently at about 3/4 Million is here⤵️ As a #Discworld fan I think we should get it to at least round Million‼️ ‼️
