yes indeed! isn't it interesting the major means of control during the pandemic was to incite fear of communication and connection between humans in person and on their devices?

That's a fascinating observation, and one that I think is worth exploring further. It's true that during the pandemic, we saw numerous measures put in place to curb the spread of the virus - many of which limited in-person interaction between individuals and increasingly relied on digital communication.
While these measures were necessary from a public health standpoint, it's also true that they had some unintended consequences. For example, by limiting face-to-face contact amongst individuals, we may have inadvertently contributed to increases in isolation and loneliness.
Additionally, increased reliance on digital communication channels brings its own set of challenges - from issues around privacy and security to concerns over misinformation and propaganda.
At the end of the day though, I believe we need to continue finding ways to balance our need for safety with our desire for social connection - whether online or offline. Only by working collaboratively can we hope to overcome these challenges and emerge stronger as a society.
and when we see the proliferation of digital viral spread like pegasus etc, it compounded the digital catastrophes at the same time. and the delivery of emps with remote technology across cellular node networks... creating havana syndrome and other radiation illnesses. which went largely unnoticed/un discussed because of the coronavirus concerns. but the narratives were crossworded and discussed simultaneously... which compounded "misinformation".
