What mobile payment means for personal data security and privacy?

When we are thinking about data security and mobile payment, we must know that there is the new wave of discussion about privacy on the Internet. The mobile telephone can become the new combination of wallet and ID-papers, and when we are thinking the things that way, we must know that this makes strong identification of user easier and harder to break than ever before. The mobile telephone can get the biometric identification algorithm like fingerprints and face image from official authorities, and then this telephone can use them for verifying the telephone user's information, what it would get from the camera and fingerprint detector.


And when the user wants to take new telephone in use, this person takes the selfie and then gives the fingerprint to that telephone, and if they match with the data, what is stored in the police files, the telephone can be used as the strong ID-card, what is very safe for payments. If some wrong person takes this telephone in the hand, would it make alarm?


Of course, hackers can break this system, but same way normal credit card can be tracked. When we are thinking about the privacy of the user of this system, we must say that every shopping and other payments, where is used credit- or bank cards can be tracked to some particular person. Same way the paper money can be tracked by using serial numbers and compiling them with the bank cards, what were used in bank automatics.


Privacy is the very interesting question, and always we forget the golden rule of the data security. Never make exceptions, and if you want to keep some payments hidden, don't use Market's customer cards, where you can collect points. And ever buy any of the products, what you want to hide, from the place, where other people knows you. The persons who are looking targets for surveillance would also look for exceptions in the way of payment. If some person uses credit- or bank card all the time, the use of the cash automatic would give the tip for those persons, that this person is planned to buy something, what this person wants to hide.


And as you see, the privacy is the problematic thing, bank or credit cards are the safe way to pay because even if they were stolen, the thief would not do anything with them if they would not get the PIN-code in their hands. The big number of cash makes person easy target for robbery and thief, and this means, that even if cash is safe in the point of view of privacy, but also that makes the person exposed to physical violence.


This is one point for mobile pay and mobile id-card. And they might be real in the near future when we are talking about the situation, that we are leaving our wallets home, and use the mobile telephones in every action, what were used by cards, which were found in wallets. Technology for that advantage already exists, and the attitudes with some limitations of laws what limits to delivering official data to the mobile systems are limiting the use of the mobile telephone for every action, what was used by the ban- and ID-cards.

Use virtual "perpetual motion machines" and seawater as energy sources.

   Use virtual "perpetual motion machines"  and seawater as energy sources.  The Archimedean screw can offer almost endless energy sources.  "Robert Fludd's 1618 "water screw" perpetual motion machine from a 1660 wood engraving. It is widely credited as the first attempt to describe such a device." (Wikipedia/Perpetual motion) The term "virtual perpetual motion machine" means a machine. That pulls water to the upper tank using a capillary tube. Then that water will fall through the generator or turbine wheel. The machine uses differences in pressure levels. But it looks like a "perpetual motion machine", that is impossible because of laws of thermodynamics.  The machine uses differences in pressure levels. But it looks like a " real perpetual motion machine", which is impossible because of the laws of thermodynamics.  The real perpetual motion machines don't use outside energy. And that's why they are not possible.

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.  An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate.  AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru

There might be an answer to why there is a gravitational hole in Earth's gravitational field.

The gravitational field at the point of the Indian Ocean is weaker than in other places on Earth. The existence of that gravitational hole is proved. But the reason why that gravitational hole is formed is unknown. The reason why the gravitational field on the Indian Ocean is weaker might be a simple thing.  There is a possible lighter rock in the mantle, or there is less material at that point. In some wildest theories, there are bubbles in magma that turn below the bottom of the Indian Ocean are less massive than in other places on Earth. The lighter material at that point should make the hole in gravitation.  "Geoid undulation in false color.
