I circled the image on my phone and it told me what it was. 
Thatâs a very smart phone, itâs amazing what they can do now from the kids homework, or point it at a sign for a business and will give out the information about it, to having a meal out, the phone will describe what the food is, and translation, to speak in to it for a translation then it can be shown in writing.

Mine is great, I stop with a foreign wagon driver and I put instant translate on, no need to get an interpreter on the phone anymore.
Itâs much quicker than trying to get hold of a translator as they could be tied up assisting the police in the station or attending court cases where they are needed too.
Out of interest, who are most polite and have more manners with your roadside encounters, the foreign drivers or UK drivers?
Some think itâs ok to have a 15 or 45 minute break in the hard shoulder or slip road.
AI. Bloody AI. Weâre gliding our way to self destruction using it. In another 5 to 10 years time youâll be lamenting, âif only we had listened to Wolfieâ
There never has been a free lunch. Always have to pay the piper eventually. The rich knobs of course have already sold their souls to get rich. Weâll have to sell our underpants and the kids.
Adamale, you are right, the government can now look in to our Apple I phones as the data protection has been removed by Apple.
Itâs all down how they what to control us and know everything in our lives, from shopping habits, locations, financial affairs, what we spend money on, who we know, where we go on holiday, what transportation methods we use, the list is endless.
It is not just governments. Some tech companies, and the individuals who control them. never elected and with no need at all to do anything like âthe right thingâ are taking shed loads of data for themselves.
The very rich have no need to be loyal to any shareholders, electors, fellow citizens, nor anyone else at all.
IMHO, no one has done anything that âentitlesâ them to be that rich and powerful.
They may well have obtained wealth and power legally, but I say that therefore the laws are wrong.
Going back to the original post, boring I know, whatever happened to friendly fire when you need it!

All these bonus and loyalty cards that we use in the supermarkets, all that data about us is sold on to third parties for an undisclosed amount that when pressed by the reporter to answer how much ,they could only say millions.
Online banking is always monitoring our movements and spending activity, they say itâs for security as the algorithms are designed to detect unusual activity but they must be selling all that information about us to third parties for profit.
You can tinker with the phone settings to turn off what you want but they have their ways to know too much.

Cost cutting budgets for the shortage of bullets.
There are nice and nasty drivers from UK and abroad, I tend to treat them all the same unless they fail the attitude test, then I become Mr Official.

And thatâs where my new phone comes in, with the instant translator, Iâll be like Captain Kirk. 
One day everything we do will be solely by a retinal scan or microchip in the arm, all paperwork and documents will be history so to scan the passport or driving licence will be from the retina or a microchip inserted below the skin.
All other data will be accessible such as criminal history, financial affairs, taxes, pensions, banking, medical information, and a plethora of endless possibilities.
Our whole lives are on our phones, that will change to an eye scan and a pellet in the arm.
The physical phone will be gone too, it could end up as a much smaller device thatâs permanently embedded in to the ear membrane.
Isnât that what covid was all about? A way to secretly implant a traking device, via the covid inoculation?

I did see that in MSM about Covid.
In local newspapers all over the country, some commentators said about it and believed it.
5G related wasnât it? Hopefully not via Vodafail.

I got shot of Vodafone as they contacted me to say the account will be closed due to inactivity, I then found out that my old phone number can be recirculated for another customer to use one day.
