Watch: How the Global Elites Are Pushing Us Into Techno-Totalitarianism

Attorney and technology expert W. Scott McCollough joined “The Defender In-Depth” this week to discuss a new 50-country pandemic preparedness and surveillance partnership announced last week by the White House.

McCollough also discussed other recent troubling developments for privacy and personal autonomy.

McCollough said the new 50-country partnership is the latest in a long line of U.S. government surveillance initiatives that curtail Americans’ civil liberties. He cited the recent renewal of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978, or FISA and legislation forcing Chinese-owned TikTok to divest its U.S. operations, as further examples.

McCollough also cited technological innovations such as blockchain technology as tools that have the potential to benefit humanity — but which, he says, are increasingly being weaponized into tools of surveillance and control.
