We’re they 501s or Originals?
A jump in excess mortality among 30-40yos in Florida starting in 2016
What happened?
One causal theory:
Techdirt has an article about the recent kerfuffle about PayPal seizing US$ 2500 from customers’ accounts they judge as spreading “misinformation”, “Everyone Seems To Be Getting The Story About PayPal And Its Supposed $2,500 Fines For Misinfo Wrong”.
The article notes that PayPal retracted this revision to their Acceptable Use Policy which, as of 2022-10-14, now includes (emphasis mine):
You may not use the PayPal service for activities that:
⋮
- relate to transactions involving (a) narcotics, steroids, certain controlled substances or other products that present a risk to consumer safety, (b) drug paraphernalia, (c) cigarettes, (d) items that encourage, promote, facilitate or instruct others to engage in illegal activity, (e) stolen goods including digital and virtual goods, (f) the promotion of hate, violence, racial or other forms of intolerance that is discriminatory or the financial exploitation of a crime, (g) items that are considered obscene, (h) items that infringe or violate any copyright, trademark, right of publicity or privacy or any other proprietary right under the laws of any jurisdiction, (i) certain sexually oriented materials or services, (j) ammunition, firearms, or certain firearm parts or accessories, or (k) certain weapons or knives regulated under applicable law.
The decision as to whether the customer has violated the emboldened text in item (f) is solely at PayPal’s discretion, and we know how broadly “hate speech” is interpreted in the jackal bins of Silicon Valley.
Now, what many reports of this episode missed or neglected to observe, is that the US$ 2500 “Liquidated Damages” pocket picking provision is still in the User Agreement under “Restricted Activities” per the following language, which has been in the Agreement for at least a year and remains in effect.
- If you are a seller and receive funds for transactions that violate the Acceptable Use Policy, then in addition to being subject to the above actions you will be liable to PayPal for the amount of PayPal’s damages caused by your violation of the Acceptable Use Policy. You acknowledge and agree that $2,500.00 U.S. dollars per violation of the Acceptable Use Policy is presently a reasonable minimum estimate of PayPal’s actual damages - including, but not limited to, internal administrative costs incurred by PayPal to monitor and track violations, damage to PayPal’s brand and reputation, and penalties imposed upon PayPal by its business partners resulting from a user’s violation - considering all currently existing circumstances, including the relationship of the sum to the range of harm to PayPal that reasonably could be anticipated because, due to the nature of the violations of the Acceptable Use Policy, actual damages would be impractical or extremely difficult to calculate. PayPal may deduct such damages directly from any existing balance in any PayPal account you control.
Thus, the stories about “PayPal rescinds $2500 fine” are incomplete—dare one say “misinformation”. What they did is remove “misinformation” as one of the items which can trigger the fleecing of an account, but that still leaves that penalty in effect for all of the other items listed in the Acceptable Use Policy, where the list of prohibited items and activities, along with the list of those which are permissible only with the prior approval of PayPal, runs some 919 words.

You do have to admit , we are on the precipice . The mark of the beast is now plausible . Being unable to buy sell or trade is now a definite . The beast knowing all you do or say is in place . Global governance is hastily being set up for implementation .
Sure, in our lifetime we may not see it . However, not much else has to happen to set it in motion.

In 2013, Iain De Jong and his colleagues at OrgCode, a consulting firm specializing in issues relevant to the homeless, created the Vulnerability Index — Service Prioritization Decision Assistance Tool, a scoring algorithm to help address America’s homelessness crisis. They were so successful that versions were adopted by authorities in at least 40 states. Other local governments, like San Francisco, have followed suit and created their own similar tools. Eight years later, De Jong and OrgCode say that cities are misusing their system — and that this has to stop.
[…] it is an example of the wilful misuse of a well-intentioned tool by city administers, who have turned to such systems to deflect attention from a persistent and multi-layered problem, rather than attempting to marshal the resources and political will to solve it.
Another example of nanny algorithms:

Thank you for the suspenders bit - makes a lot of sense.
One interesting tidbit is the racial angle picked up by the Grauniad in 2022. An earlier 2018 article makes no mention of the “white only” angle.

The brown present?
Maybe an appropriate commentary from almost 50 years ago, but so relevant for the present times as well:
A more likely type of bio-hacking:
As if nature wasn’t already evolving a more lethal virus by itself, shown by the hospitalization rates in Japan (that has been keeping epidemic controls pretty constant):
I know I saw this last night and just shook my head. Humans are stupid, oh so stupid.
