How to Avoid and Eliminate the Beast System’s SMART Technology
An overview of the types of technology to watch out for and maps of local camera installations.
SMART stands for: Surveillance Monitoring Analysis Reporting Technology.
SMART technology and appliances line the shelves of retailers promising the next “be(a)st” thing. From SMART lightbulbs to wireless gadgets, to wearable-tech of all kinds. What most people don’t realize is that the primary purpose of this technology is to collect information on anything and everything so that society can be managed by computer algorithms in a top-down digital concentration camp.(1)
ALREADY HERE IN VILCABAMBA
Photo: Attendance and door-access face scanner in the Villcabamba Parroquia offices. Obviously this device is not there for security as the office doors are wooden and easily breached with basic tools. This face scanner device is there to collect biometric data (fingerprints and facial images) while noting attendance. If such devices are connected to the Internet or the data is periodically collected during machine maintenance, the scanned image records can be put into a central database. Centralized Technocratic control systems make sure that local political authorities are compliant. Collecting face scans and other biometric data is necessary for tracking and compiling information on community leaders. Such data can later be used to leverage, coerce, and manipulate (often without the subject being aware).
Action:
Such devices need to be removed, if we are going to preserve our privacy and personal freedom.
CAMERAS
Used for:
facial recognition (identifying someone using their facial image by searching and matching the image to a large database of images)
body scanning (infrared camera technology can be used to detect temperature variation caused by the placement of objects on the body, possibly revealing contraband during a body scan)
geolocating (noting the location and time of a target that passes by a camera)
gait recognition (a type of behavioral biometric authentication that recognizes and verifies people by their unique walking style and pace)
tracking (a linked series of cameras used to identify a target that is flagged for tracking, the cameras can pivot in unison to follow the target from one camera to the next throughout a city, effectively tracking the individual within the camera matrix)
Maps of government installed cameras
Green stars indicate approximate camera locations. There is 1 camera in Yangana, 2 in Quinara, 3 in Vilcabamba, and 1 on the highway toward Loja. All of these cameras appear to be part of the Chinese-built(2) and controlled surveillance grid(3) that is spread over Ecuador. All cameras are positioned to monitor all traffic going in and out of the 4 towns shown (with the exception of the two additional cameras in the plaza of Vilcabamba, monitoring a high traffic public space).
These cameras may not be capable of all of the features listed above, but facial recognition and geolocating are almost certain.

On Highway Toward Loja (location not exact)
Vilcabamba: Camera in Plaza by the Church
Photos: Vilcabamba, Chinese Hikvision camera with 360-degree swivel, up and down pivot. It can do facial recognition within about 100 meters of the camera. Monitoring extends out to about 200 meters, several blocks away.(4) This one is installed in the central park in the corner by the Church. The Beast’s eye monitors church goers.
Vilcabamba: Camera in Plaza by the Parroquial Offices
Photos: Vilcabamba, CEIEC manufactured this camera. CEIEC is a Chinese government-owned military contractor.(5) This camera was installed several years ago on the opposite corner of the Central Park, potentially monitoring those in front of the Parroquial offices.
Vilcabamba: Camera Along the Main Road Watching Over El Mercado
Photos: Vilcabamba, this Hikvision camera is installed along the main road through town, monitoring vehicle traffic and shoppers at the weekend markets. It is downhill from the bus terminal.
For the moment the cameras are just collecting information on our movements. The imposition of centralized control comes later.
[NOTE: See the section Surveillance Systems about the dangers of privately owned surveillance cameras in the article: How do we take responsibility for our own security?]
Action:
Cameras need to be removed, if we value our freedom of movement.
LED STREETLIGHTS
LED lights are harmful to the eyes, causing retinal damage.(6) According to the American Medical Association: “Blue-rich LED streetlights operate at a wavelength that most adversely suppresses melatonin during night. It is estimated that white LED lamps have five times greater impact on circadian sleep rhythms than conventional street lamps. Recent large surveys found that brighter residential nighttime lighting is associated with reduced sleep times, dissatisfaction with sleep quality, excessive sleepiness, impaired daytime functioning and obesity.
The detrimental effects of high-intensity LED lighting are not limited to humans. Excessive outdoor lighting disrupts many species that need a dark environment. For instance, poorly designed LED lighting disorients some bird, insect, turtle and fish species, and U.S. national parks have adopted optimal lighting designs and practices that minimize the effects of light pollution on the environment.”(7)
“SMART” LED Street Lights
Bright nocturnal lighting is used for camera facial recognition at night. Sensitive microphones within some street lights can record conversations. LED light frequencies damage eyesight and can be used as a weapon. LED street lights can also be drone charging stations for aerial surveillance of citizens.(1)
The province of Loja has contracted 2 different entities to install streetlights for the SMART City. One contractor is replacing traditional street lights with the new LED lights. Later, a second company (allegedly a military contractor) comes to install an antenna on each street light allowing it to become SMART. Then, it will be capable of transmitting harmful microwave radiation when it sends data wirelessly. It also could be weaponized to harm people.
In Vilcabamba a row of these new LED lights have been installed along the highway (towards the South to Yangana) below the neighborhood of Los Huilcos.

Photo below: New white colored harmful LED light. Used to enable facial recognition with cameras at night.
Photo below: High or low-pressure sodium bulb. These sodium bulbs function perfectly well as street lights. Why should the government go to the trouble and expense of replacing them with the more dangerous LED lights?

Action:
Remove all LED street lights from our towns.
For indoor house lighting, switch to incandescent or 120V halogen bulbs (do not use low-voltage halogen bulbs as these create biologically harmful electromagnetic interference).(8) Compact florescent bulbs are also a health concern.(9)
UTILITY METERS
SMART utility meters are being installed globally to allow for centralized, automated rationing of personal consumption of water and electricity.(1)
In the past we only had analog utility meters, such as the analog electrical meter and water meter below:
Photos above: Analog meters.
Now analog meters are being replaced with digital meters like these:
Photos above: Digital meters.
Some digital meters, known as SMART meters, send user data wirelessly using microwave radiation and may be remotely shut off to control electrical or water consumption.(1) Digital meters (even the non-transmitting SMART type) can generate electromagnetic interference from the electronic components causing adverse health impacts.(10) The very low frequencies of SMART meters emit “bursts” or “pulses” or “spikes” or “peaks”, creating “dirty electricity”, which can disturb our nervous systems and sleep patterns. The EMF (electromagnetic fields) from the meters can cause a diversity of symptoms, including fatigue, tinnitus, joint pain, “brain fog” and insomnia.
For a good overview of the SMART meter agenda (including evidence of: in-home privacy invasions, systemic over-billing, extortion, health & environmental harm, fires and unprecedented hacking vulnerability), see the excellent documentary Take Back Your Power (subtitles in Spanish are available).(11)
Action:
For your health and freedom to use the water and electricity you need, do not permit your utility provider to “upgrade” your meter. Switch out digital meters for analog meters. Dig a well and set up your own power system to get independent from centralized utility sertvices.
ANTENNAS
Photos below: Vilcabamba, wireless communications antennas in the Central Park.
Real time coordination and enforcement for SMART City technological networks like 5G require the ubiquitous placement of sensors and antennas throughout our towns. They would expose us to high levels of radiation, crippling and destroying our health. The health hazards of our current 4G system (heart disease, infertility, destruction and mutation of cellular DNA, impaired memory, cancer, etc.) will increase with 5G.(12)
Action:
Take the antennas down. Replace them with fiber-optic and wired communications systems, which are faster, more secure, and less harmful to our health.
SMART CARS
New cars are equipped with 16-24 cameras inside and out. Emotion and facial recognition will soon be mandatory. Radar is used inside to measure your vital signs (ie. heart rate). Hidden microphones are listening. All movements are tracked. Your carbon credit status will determine whether the car can be driven or not.(1)
Since 2003, car manufacturers have been producing vehicles with some kind of wireless connectivity. These vehicles contain different modules that can be remotely shut off. As vehicles are more integrated with the Internet via computer technology, corporations/governments are gaining the ability to have control over our vehicles. If they find our behavior unacceptable, they can limit our ability to drive. (13)
Action:
Use older cars, ideally manufactured before 2003. Avoid electric cars. Avoid new cars with Wifi, GPS, Bluetooth, radar, cameras, etc.
SMART ELECTRONICS
Personal Devices & Home SMART Appliances
SMART electronics are increasingly equipped with cameras to watch us, and hidden microphones to record our conversations. All devices with Apps are listening, watching, and collecting our personal data. Technology now invades our privacy through computers, Alexa, wearable tech (i.e. Apple Watch, Virtual Reality headset), and other new SMART appliances like TVs,(14) refrigerators, washing machines, speakers, etc.
All this is happening now.(1)
Of particular concern is the cell phone. Yes, the device that has become the center of our lives. This technology is the most dangerous of them all. Cell phones are used to collect voice samples, harvest facial images, map social networks, and track and profile users. What happens when this data falls into the hands of an unscrupulous government?
We may be reluctant to contemplate how to manage our lives without a cell phone now that we have become so dependent on (or should I say addicted to?) our cell phones. Let us weigh the advantages and disadvantages, and take a hard look at losing our health (cancer, fertility, brain function), and our freedom (through 24-hour a day surveillance and the planned restrictions on our choices, such as in China). What value do we place on our health and freedom?
For a deeper understanding of the sinister nature of SMART technology, see the article: The Beast System(15)
Action:
Get rid of your SMART electronics. Avoid buying anything advertised as SMART. Disconnect your wireless devices from the Internet by disabling wireless connectivity - use only wired connections. Cover cameras on your devices with tape, at least when not in use. Avoid items with Wifi or Bluetooth logos on the package. Read the manual for the device to understand how it works. Ask an electronics technician to remove transmitter antenna modules and other undesirable components (videos may be available online on how to do this).
Remember, even though SMART is often translated as “intelligent”, it means: Surveillance Monitoring Analysis Reporting Technology. The more we use the associated technologies, the more we move toward a technocracy. In such a society, instead of making our own free will choices, we will be herded into the “approved behaviors” dictated by algorithms, with little regard for our health or happiness.
SOME PERSPECTIVE
In the 4 Ecuadorian towns covered in this article (Vilcabamba, San Pedro, Quinara, Yangana) there is probably a population of around 15,000 people in total when including the surounding rural areas.
There is no 5G antennas or SMART meters that I know of in the area at this time.
At the time of writing this article there is less than 10 cameras that are part of the national government surveillance network in the area that I am aware of.
The number of “private” surveillance cameras and SMART electronics (aside from the cell phone) probably number many hundred to a couple thousand.
The number of cellphones should basically match that of the population making it the richest source for harvesting information, providing probably at least 95% of the data available to AI. If it were not for the cellphone the Beast System would be highly impaired.
CONCLUSION
Once you understand the objectives of the powerful, then the incremental steps of their programs can be identified beyond the deceptions of protecting our health, security or the environment.
The decisions we are making today threaten many life forms on Earth with extinction and enslavement. I am serious about that statement.
The only way to avoid this fate is to have many of us rising up in unison. We have the right, as sovereign human beings, to insist that we live in an environment and culture that promote life. We deserve clean water, air, and soil; nutritious food to eat; healthy homes; a free society. If we do not insist, then the Powers-that-Be step into the vacuum to advance their own agendas.
That is what they are doing right now. If we do not interrupt their plans, we could become the victims of them. Let us stand together for the life we want for ourselves and our children.
“Freedom is the sure possession of those alone who have the courage to defend it.”
- Pericles
