It is beyond me why today’s homes do not come equipped standard with a global, national and local communications screen, for free.
Communication is becoming a lynchpin in today’s society, we rely on it to propose business ideas, relate news and talk to friends. Yet we pay money to a set of commercial giants for this privilege. Why?
Talking to friends, partners, family or associates should be free and should be delivered in a much better package.
In a Zen Anarchy society every home, or singles residence, will include a screen on a main wall, with an uplink directly to a local, national and global mainframe. This link will have video feed from and to the Sender/Receiver (Optional). These screens allow direct access to any global or national free news source (discussed later).
In the communications mainframe (directly in the city center) news reports are delivered to either a global, national or local database dependant on that news’ relevancy to those residents in those particular areas. These mainframes also immediately deliver any impending disaster information direct to home communication screens, giving immediate warning to all residents in a danger area. These messages will have the ability to turn on a Communications Screen if it is in Standby or Silent mode, activating an audible warning to Evacuate via the Emergency Transport networks. They will not have the ability to turn on a Sound or Audio Receiver in the individuals location as this would be a breach of privacy.
This kind of immediate, relevant and safety communication would enable the world to choose their communication based on relevancy, it would allow the residents of the world to avoid impending disasters, and it would allow instant communication, free, anywhere in the world.
This allows the improvement of Emergency Assistance, improves crime reduction, assists in resident happiness by the individual not having to filter through communications that bear absolutely no relevance and allow constant communication with friends and family free of charge.
This system will also allow for an immediate poll of all residents in a particular area on a particular topic. For example, when rotational council is made, questions on all applicable topics to an area are delivered to residents with priority. Those residents answer these questions (all directly relevant to their area/their city/their nation) and the information is passed to the rotational council via the feed response constructed by the Communication Mainframe.
This system will increase safety, ensure that all decisions made are made with the consensus of the entire population not simply (and irresponsibly) via one or two people in a position of power.
If a definite conclusion cannot be reached (more than 10% towards either decision/direction/action), the decision is postponed and more information on the topic is delivered to the people via the Communications Screen.
These Home Communication Screens also link directly to individuals via a series of wires and connections similar to a mobile phone, attached to the individuals arm in the form of a glove. This glove allows communications to be displayed on the individuals forearm or via a contact lens inserted onto the retina. These communications will cease to transmit under the condition that the individual is travelling more than 0.5 km/h (when standing-thus walking) or more than 50km/h (while seated-thus driving). However the communications will function when travelling over 130 km/h (while seated or standing) thus on a mass transport device or automated personal vehicles.
This will ensure that communication while driving or walking is cancelled and thus ensures safety of all citizens.
Every citizen is listed in a global address book. However personal details (Name, sex, age, location, appearance) are all kept private and are not listed at all.
Due to Zen Anarchy being a resource based economy, not a monetary based economy- Spam messages and advertising have no need to exist and thus residents are delivered only the most applicable communications.
