The future being designed isn’t only dystopian — it’s seamlessly intrusive.

At the World Economic Forum, Avathon CEO Pervinder Johar predicted a world where facial recognition eliminates the need for digital ID. No passwords, no cards—just automated, inescapable identification embedded in “smart cities.”

The WEF’s “Digital Public Infrastructure” panel was a polished sales pitch for mass surveillance, disguised as “efficiency” and “security.” Johar proudly discussed Avathon’s AI surveillance tech, already active in Texas schools, monitoring everything — open doors, unauthorized access, weapons. All for safety, of course.

Panelist Hoda Al Khzaimi praised public-private partnerships in DPI while openly admitting mass analytics could be imposed on populations “for health reasons.” Because apparently, tracking everyone, everywhere, is the only way to manage pandemics.
