“So, some Christians who see a lot of prophetic meaning in ‘Zionism,’ Israel, and all that. For us that’s absolutely worse than irrelevant — it’s incredibly misleading to people about what Christianity is about. It’s just a perversion of Christianity.” Fr. Thomas Hopko (2012)

This is amazing, yet terrifying to me. There is no hiding from machines.
No cameras. No sensors. Just Wi-Fi reading human movement. Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University have developed a system that uses standard WiFi routers to detect human movement through walls—without any cameras. By applying AI and DensePose model, the system turns WiFi signals into detailed maps of body posture in real time.
