In 1949  George Orwell predicted in his novel called 1984, he predicted that big brother will be watching you !! and i  dont think he was wrong ?? so be very careful what you text, email or msg to others,, we are submitting all our info to the government little by little every year now and i am sure it wont be long before they know what time you start moving in a morning, what time you have a dump, what time you eat etc,, Will some one please correct me if i am wrong here, but was it not China who introduced a movement app on all mobile phones when Covid broke out just over 3 yrs ago ?? i seem to recall it in the news but did it ever take off and work ??
