How Technology Is Being Used To Bring In The Mark Of The Beast - Part II
And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to
receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man
might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or
the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding
count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his
number is Six hundred threescore and six. Revelation 13:16-18
This article describes the technology that is being developed to bring in
the mark of the beast.
1. From Cash To Cashless Society
An article/video titled “Inside Amazon’s Robot-Run Supermarket That Needs
Just 3 Human Workers ”(Note 4) is about a new store concept that uses a
cashless payment system. This is one step closer to the human implanted
microchip which can be used in the future.
“If you’re a robot stealing somebody’s job, it’s best to stay hidden.
That’s what Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos appears to be thinking, as his
Seattle-based web giant has contemplated a two-story, automated grocery
store in which a staff of robots on the floor upstairs grabs and bags
items for shoppers below. The ground level of the futuristic prototype — a
supermarket-sized version of its recently unveiled “Amazon Go” convenience
store, with a bigger layout that could span anywhere between 10,000 and
40,000 square feet — would be devoted to goods that shoppers typically
like to touch, sources briefed on the plans told The Post. Those could
include as many as 4,000 items, spanning fresh fruits and vegetables,
eggs, meats and cheeses, and grab-it-and-go stuff like beer and wine, the
sources said. Pharmacies might also might spring up at some of the
high-tech locations, as Amazon looks to break into the lucrative sector,
insiders said. But for many, the most striking feature of the bigger
stores is that they could operate with as few as three employees at a
time. Sources said the plans call for staff to max out at 10 workers per
location during any given shift.”
In another article titled "Amazon Opens Full-Size Grocery Store With No
Cashiers" (Note 5) says:
"Amazon on Tuesday unveiled a new supermarket prototype that relies more on
technology than human workers — a controversial, job-killing business
model that CEO Jeff Bezos had dismissed as nutty three years ago. The
10,400-square-foot “Amazon Go Grocery” store in Seattle’s Capitol Hill
neighborhood uses cameras and sensors to detect which products customers
pick off the shelves, allowing shoppers to pay for a bagful of groceries
without the help of a cashier. The new store has five times as much
shopping space as the Amazon Go stores that first opened in January 2018,
which are typically around 2,000 square feet . . . . The story, citing
sources, said the two-story concept would have robots grabbing and bagging
goods on the top floor while shoppers picked up items such as produce,
meats and booze on the ground floor. At the time, insiders said Amazon was
aiming to open stores that could operate with between three and 10
employees."
An article titled “Amazon's Just Walk Out Till-Free Tech Offered To
Rivals”(Note 6) describes how Amazon is offering its till-less technology
to competitors.
"Amazon is offering its till-less technology to other High Street shops,
just over two years after launching it via its own Go Grocery chain. Go
Grocery shoppers scan a smartphone app as they arrive, allowing them to
pay via their main Amazon accounts. It has now adapted its Just Walk Out
system for other retailers so shoppers register a payment card on entry
and are automatically billed as they leave. But, unlike at Go Grocery,
users' Amazon accounts will not be involved. And the firm has said that
information collected about consumers will only be used to support the
retailers it has partnered with. ‘We only collect the data needed to
provide shoppers with an accurate receipt,’ Amazon's website says.
‘Shoppers can think of this as similar to typical security camera
footage.’ The system involves fitting a shop with hundreds of cameras and
depth-sensors, whose data is then remotely analysed on Amazon's computer
servers. The software can distinguish whether a shopper has picked up and
kept a product for purchase or if they have only examined an item before
replacing it back on a shelf. Amazon says it can install the required
equipment in ‘as little as a few weeks.’”
