Thanks for these articles, Edward. It is sad to see that Russia is now no different, fundamentally, from the West. It would have been good to imagine somewhere where real human life would be left to go on, hardships notwithstanding, even if one personally couldn't escape to it. But there's going to be nowhere. Having said that, both Russia and the US are very big, which I envy them insofar as it might be easier to hide for longer, maybe even until this grandiose project unravels.
Workers of the world unite. You have nothing to lose but your QR code.
Let's have a wider perspective on the issue at hand. Video surveillance is here to stay, that much is clear. While providing a valuable public service in fighting crime, it certainly harbors a lot of opportunities for abuse in curtailing people's freedoms - this doesn't need to be explained either, I think. Official population of Moscow is 12.5 million, with guest workers, visitors and tourists it is closer to 15 - 16 million depending on the season. I haven't been to Moscow since the Soviet times, but multiple reviews, both favorable and not so much, still confirm that Moscow today is one of the best run cities in Europe, especially considering its population size, the harsh climate and the geographic spread. The city is overall very clean, has good public transportation system and has a reputation for being safe. Does the existing video surveillance play a role in the city's safety? I think it does, though I'm not sure how much. If we look at the statistics, the number of homicides in Moscow per year peaked in 2002 at around 1500 and now it is less than 300, so police is probably doing there a better job and are using modern tools to both prevent the crimes and catch the criminals. Comparing to Chicago, a city in US comparable to Moscow in population and square mileage, there the homicide rate is about twice as high as in Moscow with lesser video surveillance penetration. Have I heard any stories about Moscow government using video surveillance for political suppression reasons? No, I didn't, though I'm sure that in Russia where to organize a legal political protest is almost impossible, they are actively capturing faces and storing them in databases of the activists that participate in "illegal" protests. So all these people are numbered and tagged, as they are in the West.
Now to the scope of use of video surveillance in Moscow. Is it the highest in the world? By far it is not, but, nonetheless, it is among the 10 most video surveilled cities in the world.
Based on the number of cameras per 1,000 people, these cities are the top 10 most surveilled in the world:
Cities of China* — 540m cameras to 1.46bn people = 372.8 cameras per 1,000 people
Indore, India – 200,600 cameras per 3,208,722 people = 62.52 cameras per 1,000 people
Hyderabad, India — 440,299 cameras for 10,534,418 people = 41.8 cameras per 1,000 people
Delhi, India — 436,600 cameras for 16,349,831 people = 26.7 cameras per 1,000 people
Chennai, India — 282,126 cameras for 11,503,293 people = 24.53 cameras per 1,000 people
Singapore, Singapore — 108,981 cameras for 6,039,577 people = 18.04 cameras per 1,000 people
Moscow, Russia — 213,000 cameras for 12,640,818 people = 16.85 cameras per 1,000 people
Baghdad, Iraq — 120,000 cameras for 7,511,920 people = 15.97 cameras per 1,000 people
London, England (UK)** — 127,373 cameras for 9,540,576 people = 13.35 cameras per 1,000 people
St. Petersburgh, Russia — 70,000 cameras for 5,535,556 people = 12.65 cameras per 1,000 people
Los Angeles, US — 34,959 cameras for 3,985,520 people = 8.77 cameras per 1,000 people
What can we conclude from all of that? Russia, and especially Moscow, is a city that follows all global trends, both the good ones and bad ones. Russian authorities are for Globalism minus LGBTQ+, though I'm not sure if this distinction will stay for too long if the current course is maintained. The opposition to sexual deviation there by authorities is used as a steam release valve in their populist games with the people. One thing that makes Russia more like the Global West vs. Global East, where India and China are the biggest parts, is that in Russia opposition to the sweeping digitization, including omnipresent video surveillance, is as strong as it is among the Western democracies.
"Don't need your control grid." - MY control grid... It is surprising how many of the comments on this blog are modeled after the neoliberals we see so many on Twitter, Facebook and other places, like NYT and WaPo. They may defend different values, but use exactly the same methods.
Also interesting how video surveillance got into the same bucket with mass migration and genetic jabbing, as if these are comparable evils.
So, let me say it again.
1. Video surveillance is here to stay. And this doesn't even have to do with the omnipresent state, but with the fact that this technology at present delivers more good than evil. Tell the tens of millions of small retail business owners around the world to stop their CCTV systems - they'll just do a hand gesture by their head showing that you are coo-coo. This technology assures at least some level of protection against theft and robbery. So, the next time you are in a corner store buying a late night snack - smile, because you certainly are on camera.
2. Mass migration is here to stay for as long as conditions of disparity will exist between different parts of the world. People are very inventive creatures and will always find ways to overcome whatever obstacles are installed to stop this process from happening. What is interesting is that today the process has reversed to an extent and it is the people from the well to do parts of the world are looking for ways to escape to the third world countries looking for simpler life and for the government system that is less intrusive and simply doesn't have the money to become an oppressive force it has turned into in the West. Now, would you like the third world countries to start mounting barriers for the Western world population migration? I certainly would not.
3. Genetic jabbing should be resisted with every possible available method. Especially this concerns the mandated and coercive types. Slowly but surely the understanding of this is beginning to dawn on mainstream as the recent hearings at the European Parliament have shown. But at the same time in US the FDA 15 to 0 has approved the genetic COVID jabs for kids and have put them on vaccination schedule. So the fight is far from over, don't let your guard down, protect yourself and your kids.
I was in Moscow in July 2022 so I am sure my face was captured. So what? No big deal. The big deal was that less than 5 percent of people in Moscow were wearing a mask so I was happy to see 95 percent of Russian faces. And I felt safe in Moscow at night.
All big cities have cameras now to prevent crime. Face surveillance helps the Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) IMMEDIATELY identify evil people like Bogdan Tsiganenko and Natalya Vovk in the plot to murder INNOCENT Russian journalist Darya Dugina.
.Like I said, I was in Moscow in July 2022 so I know that Russia does NOT have any "new fun" definitions of crime. "Crime" is "crime". and "terrorism" is "terrorism".
Bogdan Tsiganenko and Natalya Vovk committed a crime and committed terrorism when they murdered an INNOCENT Russian journalist Darya Dugina. Can you think of a better method of catching criminals at the scene of a crime that works better than facial recognition technology? If one thinks that their face has NOT already been captured by the USA National Security Agency or another intelligence agency by now, then one is living in a false sense of reality.
I was in Minsk on Friday, October 21, 2022 and I know my face was captured inside a bank with surveillance cameras. So what? I am NOT a criminal. I was in Amsterdam Schiphol airport in August 2022 and my face was captured. So what?
I post my anti-vax, anti-PCR test, anti-QR code "green pass", anti-mask opinions and I have NO issues in the union state of Belarus and Russia because I am NOT a criminal.
I live in the here and now and I do NOT lose sleep over surveillance cameras. Fear mongering is NOT a solution. Preparedness is a solution. And I am very well prepared for all worst case scenarios NOW and in the future year 2030, I have my independent water source. I grow, preserve, and store lots of food. I have a network of like-minded circle of friends that I can count on. I have tools for any kind of job. I am a hard working law abiding citizen who is loud and proud anti-vaxxer.
My opinions may get me banned on a social media platform however my anti-vax opinions are NOT a criminal offense in the union state of Belarus and Russia.
I sincerely hope that both you and I will still be here in 2030. Please remember, we are on the same anti-vax, anti-PCR test, anti-QR code "green pass", anti-mask team.
Why do you think it's all about you? Russian surveillance cameras are primarily to monitor Russians, and a 'criminal' is whatever the state, at any time, defines as a criminal. I presume you've read Sozhenitsyn.
We're on the same anti-vaxx side but clearly not on the same anti-micro-surveillance side. I don't have a problem with a camera in a bank or a shop. I do have a problem with facial recognition cameras absolutely everywhere to track my every move. I'm not a criminal now, but I'll be a criminal as soon as they mandate injections - and they will, once we all have our digital ID.
Russia has bought into the Fourth Industrial Revolution agenda.
I definitely won't be here in 2030 - I'm 70 and I got two doses of the genetic goop before I found out what was going on. But I care about those who will be here in 2030, including my kids and my grandchild, but everyone else's kids and grandchildren too, including those without their own water supply. In fact, especially those.
I agree with you that this is not about me. I only share my thoughts, opinions, information, and personal experience. I will research and hope to post a remedy soon for those who have taken an injection. Also, I encourage other readers to post their information about remedies as well. And also, you may have gotten a placebo like my mother. I wish the best of health.
There is no way that any country can afford now to relinquish it's video surveillance tech. If any one of them did, then all the world's criminals would decamp there pronto. Like the wheel or electricity, we just have to live with technologies that have been invented. It's annoying as a free individual of course to be constantly surveilled, but such surveillance does offer some protection from threats that are "very" very real...especially now with the NATO Ukraine war, when dangerous weapons (even ones that can take down a civilian aircraft) are being circulated freely and are accessible for its trained terrorists in various fields of operation throughout the world.
I just said in my comment ""But, but, but.... Russia's surveillance is good surveillance, they are out to catch NATO agents and other troublemakers, hooligans and nosy journalists and other social vermin. I'm glad they are looking out for .... us." :-) Thanks, Riley, can't wait for the apologetic brigade to come streaming in." Guess i should have looked further. :-)
The "apologetic brigade" are people like me who can see that though Riley has focused quite brilliantly and honestly on a real and important and somewhat confusing anomoly in Russia's health governance ( especially its apparent continuing subservience to WEF pharmageddon policies), that nonetheless, there may well be a concerted effort to use such observable weaknesses and complexities in current policy to depress confidence in Russia among the many people who support and love Russia from afar, especially in the English speaking world. Such an endeavour would be a (not crucial but) delightful wet dream for CIA propagandists and something certainly worth spending a decent amount of fiat dollars on.
Very typical of the "apologetic brigade" to see everything through the lens of geopolitical contesting by the world's various elites for global control and to side with "the good faction," vs seeing the reality that it's the 99+% everywhere against ALL the elites, everywhere. People who really get it should have zero confidence in Russia or any other global power, i.e. in the power structures which actually run these nations.
Keep on fighting, my friend! I know, we don't agree on many things, but I admire your resolution to fight people that do not see anything beyond their premeditated political determination. Just like the political "liberals", except with an opposing political affiliation tag.
I simply stated FACTS. Your comment is the one that can NOT handle the TRUTH and can NOT handle FACTS. Facial recognition is used to catch criminals and I provided an example. Can you think of a better method of catching criminals?
Truth is NOT a crime in Russia. Russian citizen Edward Snowden revealed that the USA National Security Agency can capture your face anytime while you use your phone or laptop. Did you think that Apple iphone included a camera just so you could take photos?
Besides there are much more important issues than facial recognition to be concerned with. 6G and injections just to name 2 issues. I have my priorities all figured out. I support facial recognition especially if evil people like Bogdan Tsiganenko and Natalya Vovk are identified for THEIR murderous crime of an INNOCENT Russian journalist Darya Dugina.
"Can you think of a better method of catching criminals?"
Utopia fallacy. Try again.
We know you're here to shill. Do you really want to go down the flaws of facial recognition? Apparently you seem to think masks stop it from working, but think it is okay to trample millions' of people's rights to catch two crooks.
How about you execute everybody, that way you'll get 100% of the criminals. Can you think of a better method of executing 100% of the criminals?
My expectations are even lower now. I will answer your question even though my simple question was left unanswered AGAIN. Firing squad for the 100 percent of criminals who commit crimes like Bogdan Tsiganenko and Natalya Vovk who murdered an innocent Russian girl in August 2022. Bogdan Tsiganenko and Natalya Vovk are criminals and were IMMEDIATELY caught with surveillance cameras.
Good law abiding citizens in Russia are NOT criminals. Edward Snowden is a Russian citizen and abides by Russian law. If one is so worried about breaking the law, then one should be more like Edward Snowden (live in Russia with a traditional family and be happy.)
"But, but, but.... Russia's surveillance is good surveillance, they are out to catch NATO agents and other troublemakers, hooligans and nosy journalists and other social vermin. I'm glad they are looking out for .... us." :-) Thanks, Riley, can't wait for the apologetic brigade to come streaming in.
Why are you Mr S always so quick to muzzle these difficult "apologitic brigade" types ? Is it your role (as in an operation) to discourage and shame any here who might dare to offer contrarian opinion or in any way question Riley's black pill analysis of all things Russian, even "before" they actually say anything?
Muzzle? What a load of crap. How am i i remotely able to prevent Putin shills from posting here? "Black pill analysis": is that what we call the recounting of reports from *Russian* media? You wanna justify camera surveillance of the general population? Go right ahead, buddy.
When someone smashes your BMW Jeffrey, I suppose you will disallow the video evidence needed to prosecute the lowlife "Putin apologist"who felt impelled to inflict the said damage?
My 50 year old US-made car? right, James. :-) Eff this pushing of the validity of video surveillance to "fight crime," that's exactly how it has been sold.

Very "funny" if you consider that western road map and visions of the future totally coincide with the 4th Political Theory of Alexander Dugin!
The hotel and mall model go online everywhere, the resources, material, time, energy and investment built into this system must be insane. The internet of things....
Soon to be the Internet of Bodies (IoB). As someone who dabbles in this sphere, it was clear from its inception that Covid management policies were pieces in a grander digital management scheme for all humanity.
Couple the information gleaned from vaccine passports or health applications, financial applications, with biometric information and you have a digital facsimile of every person on earth. Ultimately, Xi, Putin, Musk et al. are star players for Team Bill Gates.
We're bit actors in a totalitarian wet dream. Check out Yuval Noah Harari's "21 Lessons for the 21st Century" for the globalists' end-game.
Luciferaise. Trapped in Georgia. Connections...watch the very revelant video about what the hell is going on at the airport in the country of Georgia, where our intrepid traveler has been......
In fact, Putin's regime did not kick out the Rothschild. The bank of Russia is an "independent" bank, just like the Federal Reserve or any other central bank of the world.
Come on this will be great! You can have a QR-code in your hand and scan yourself in and out of your smarthouse where your insect rations are delivered by drones....
True.... In much of western Europe there has been a frantic building of huge new hotels during under and after covid, which is strange since visitors from abroad are in heavy decline, and the seminar and workshop industry are moving online. My hypotheses is that these new "hotels" are intended to be used as storage facillities during the next phase of this horror-movie. QR code to get in and out, total surveilance, "free food", and of course mandatory jabs....
When I think of hotels now, I think of dinghy-divers (as they're called in UK) being generously accommodated in luxurious hotels at taxpayers' expense.
I just saw a post from Brian Rose from LondonReal he actually thinks the whole QR surveilance system will be fantastic because you get better services.... Crashing every major economy, see who makes it through & build back totally dystopian....
That man could use some therapy, imo, and if he thinks this stuff is good that just confirms my view. LondonReal has done some good stuff but Rose is pretty mixed-up.
Safe City, I'm sure I've heard this somewhere before... Oh right, they do the same thing in my own city and even use the same term for it.

The things the people are willing to trade for a bit of perceived safety.
"Safe" has now become one of the creepiest words in the English language.
That's true - but DON'T forget EFFECTIVE !
yes, safe and effective...........so meaningful.
I am at peace.
It seems suspiciously like the real meaning behind "safe" is control. In more and more instances.😒
Always the same BS:
Terrorism, a scarecrow to implement control on the whole planet
Covid, a scarecrow to implement chip and digital surveillance
Climate change, a scarecrow to implement ESG, neocommunism and basic income
The US dollar, a scarecrow to implement the EU in the 1990's
The US imperialsim, a scarecrow to implement sanctions/eurasism/ reinforcement of bipolarity NATO and Eurasist block
Attempts to control our emotions/actions whatever it takes.🙄
Controlled demolition of global economy to implement a new currency.
The PHOENIX rebirth from ashes.
A RENAISSANCE /REBIRTH , a concept from AUBE DOREE / GOLDEN DAWN, LUCIFERIAN MASONRY, VICTORY OF SATAN ON GOD
The war effort (against mankind) is all going forward as planned, then...
"...increased terrorist threat"
Typical globalist propaganda. If you read the books of Y. Harari, the propagandist of Klaus Schwab, he is always reminding the reader of the major threats that humanity is facing: climate change, terrorism and pandemics. And they are all fabricated by the Globalists. Those who are still unsure about terrorism can learn here (https://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/sociopolitica/esp_sociopol_muslimbrotherhood15a.htm#I.%20The%20Roots%20of%20Islamic%20Terrorism) how Islam has been hijacked and instrumentalized to bring about the Clash of Civilisations. This was first conceived by Bernard Lewis (https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/246212) and later propagandized by Samuel Huttington.

Talking about public cameras only. That's only for crowd control just like any of these three letter agencies do not work for the people.

I just said in my comment ""But, but, but.... Russia's surveillance is good surveillance, they are out to catch NATO agents and other troublemakers, hooligans and nosy journalists and other social vermin. I'm glad they are looking out for .... us." :-) Thanks, Riley, can't wait for the apologetic brigade to come streaming in." Guess i should have looked further. :-)
The "apologetic brigade" are people like me who can see that though Riley has focused quite brilliantly and honestly on a real and important and somewhat confusing anomoly in Russia's health governance ( especially its apparent continuing subservience to WEF pharmageddon policies), that nonetheless, there may well be a concerted effort to use such observable weaknesses and complexities in current policy to depress confidence in Russia among the many people who support and love Russia from afar, especially in the English speaking world. Such an endeavour would be a (not crucial but) delightful wet dream for CIA propagandists and something certainly worth spending a decent amount of fiat dollars on.
Very typical of the "apologetic brigade" to see everything through the lens of geopolitical contesting by the world's various elites for global control and to side with "the good faction," vs seeing the reality that it's the 99+% everywhere against ALL the elites, everywhere. People who really get it should have zero confidence in Russia or any other global power, i.e. in the power structures which actually run these nations.
Keep on fighting, my friend! I know, we don't agree on many things, but I admire your resolution to fight people that do not see anything beyond their premeditated political determination. Just like the political "liberals", except with an opposing political affiliation tag.
Which "premeditated political determination" are we talking about? Just trying to clarify, not trying to cause trouble. :-)
I simply stated FACTS. Your comment is the one that can NOT handle the TRUTH and can NOT handle FACTS. Facial recognition is used to catch criminals and I provided an example. Can you think of a better method of catching criminals?
Truth is NOT a crime in Russia. Russian citizen Edward Snowden revealed that the USA National Security Agency can capture your face anytime while you use your phone or laptop. Did you think that Apple iphone included a camera just so you could take photos?
Besides there are much more important issues than facial recognition to be concerned with. 6G and injections just to name 2 issues. I have my priorities all figured out. I support facial recognition especially if evil people like Bogdan Tsiganenko and Natalya Vovk are identified for THEIR murderous crime of an INNOCENT Russian journalist Darya Dugina.
"Can you think of a better method of catching criminals?"
Utopia fallacy. Try again.
We know you're here to shill. Do you really want to go down the flaws of facial recognition? Apparently you seem to think masks stop it from working, but think it is okay to trample millions' of people's rights to catch two crooks.
How about you execute everybody, that way you'll get 100% of the criminals. Can you think of a better method of executing 100% of the criminals?
My expectations are even lower now. I will answer your question even though my simple question was left unanswered AGAIN. Firing squad for the 100 percent of criminals who commit crimes like Bogdan Tsiganenko and Natalya Vovk who murdered an innocent Russian girl in August 2022. Bogdan Tsiganenko and Natalya Vovk are criminals and were IMMEDIATELY caught with surveillance cameras.
Good law abiding citizens in Russia are NOT criminals. Edward Snowden is a Russian citizen and abides by Russian law. If one is so worried about breaking the law, then one should be more like Edward Snowden (live in Russia with a traditional family and be happy.)
"Good law abiding citizens in Russia are NOT criminals."
Then why do you treat them as such by invading their privacy without consent?
You understood my point shooting everybody just to kill a handful of criminals is wrong.
Why do you not understand that spying on everybody just to spy on a handful of criminals is also wrong?
If one can NOT answer a simple question that I asked, then I do have low expectations for some people on this posting board.
"But, but, but.... Russia's surveillance is good surveillance, they are out to catch NATO agents and other troublemakers, hooligans and nosy journalists and other social vermin. I'm glad they are looking out for .... us." :-) Thanks, Riley, can't wait for the apologetic brigade to come streaming in.
Why are you Mr S always so quick to muzzle these difficult "apologitic brigade" types ? Is it your role (as in an operation) to discourage and shame any here who might dare to offer contrarian opinion or in any way question Riley's black pill analysis of all things Russian, even "before" they actually say anything?
Muzzle? What a load of crap. How am i i remotely able to prevent Putin shills from posting here? "Black pill analysis": is that what we call the recounting of reports from *Russian* media? You wanna justify camera surveillance of the general population? Go right ahead, buddy.
When someone smashes your BMW Jeffrey, I suppose you will disallow the video evidence needed to prosecute the lowlife "Putin apologist"who felt impelled to inflict the said damage?
My 50 year old US-made car? right, James. :-) Eff this pushing of the validity of video surveillance to "fight crime," that's exactly how it has been sold.
One step closer to Social Points system = Points for Obedience & Cooperation with your new SLAVE designation? LIABILITY for Vax makers - It's just Common Sense! Mick from Hooe (UK) Unjabbed to live longer and resist the tyrants.
According to Jacques Attali, there will be ONE global basic income revenue on the planet (linked to social point system I guess): the "good cop" will have to take out his mask.
And global nomadism with 3 categories:
- luxury nomadism
- middle class
- proletarian nomadism
Very "funny" if you consider that western road map and visions of the future totally coincide with the 4th Political Theory of Alexander Dugin!
The hotel and mall model go online everywhere, the resources, material, time, energy and investment built into this system must be insane. The internet of things....
Soon to be the Internet of Bodies (IoB). As someone who dabbles in this sphere, it was clear from its inception that Covid management policies were pieces in a grander digital management scheme for all humanity.
Couple the information gleaned from vaccine passports or health applications, financial applications, with biometric information and you have a digital facsimile of every person on earth. Ultimately, Xi, Putin, Musk et al. are star players for Team Bill Gates.
We're bit actors in a totalitarian wet dream. Check out Yuval Noah Harari's "21 Lessons for the 21st Century" for the globalists' end-game.

Luciferaise. Trapped in Georgia. Connections...watch the very revelant video about what the hell is going on at the airport in the country of Georgia, where our intrepid traveler has been......
In fact, Putin's regime did not kick out the Rothschild. The bank of Russia is an "independent" bank, just like the Federal Reserve or any other central bank of the world.
Come on this will be great! You can have a QR-code in your hand and scan yourself in and out of your smarthouse where your insect rations are delivered by drones....
Smarthouse?! What, a whole house?!! Tiny smartpod is more likely, I believe.
True.... In much of western Europe there has been a frantic building of huge new hotels during under and after covid, which is strange since visitors from abroad are in heavy decline, and the seminar and workshop industry are moving online. My hypotheses is that these new "hotels" are intended to be used as storage facillities during the next phase of this horror-movie. QR code to get in and out, total surveilance, "free food", and of course mandatory jabs....
A lot of prisons were built in France these years, for 15000 persons in total, but I heard it's the same in other European countries.
18 prisons under construction in 2022 in France, and the rest is planned for 2027.

Why so many prisons? Are the laws reinforced against criminals, to justify this? Not at all !
I guess the hotels you're talking about could have the same finality.
Very interesting observation.
When I think of hotels now, I think of dinghy-divers (as they're called in UK) being generously accommodated in luxurious hotels at taxpayers' expense.
I just saw a post from Brian Rose from LondonReal he actually thinks the whole QR surveilance system will be fantastic because you get better services.... Crashing every major economy, see who makes it through & build back totally dystopian....
That man could use some therapy, imo, and if he thinks this stuff is good that just confirms my view. LondonReal has done some good stuff but Rose is pretty mixed-up.
