Unprecedented levels of government surveillance; loss of privacy through corporate data mining; centralized digital currency; behavioral tracking and control: Is this the digital future we’ve been sleepwalking towards?
“Nick Corbishley has the frenetic energy of someone who has seen too much. His book is fantastic.”―Russell Brand, “Under the Skin” podcast
Untold millions of people in “democracies” all over the world were barred from accessing basic services in 2021―from earning a living or traveling within their own country―because they lacked proper digital identification surrounding the vaccine. For many, 2021 will be remembered as the year that basic, long-standing bioethical principles such as bodily autonomy, bodily integrity, and the informed consent of the patient ended.
In Scanned, investigative journalist Nick Corbishley examines and exposes the lies and overreach that underpin the wholesale erosion of personal freedoms that is continuing to happen at an alarming rate. In clear language supported by rigorous research, Corbishley uncovers how the rollout of vaccine passports, digital IDs and centralized digital currency not only represents an unprecedented violation of privacy and bodily autonomy, but how it perpetuates the idea that a “small” collective sacrifice will allow us to return to normality.
Today, digital “health” IDs threaten to go totally global, with the World Health Organization’s tacit endorsement. On all five continents governments and corporations are quietly but quickly rolling out digital ID programs. At the same time, 90% of the world’s central banks are exploring a central bank digital currency (CBDC), with half of them already developing an electronic version of their fiat money.
These interlocking initiatives threaten to radically reconfigure the way societies and economies function. If successful, they will facilitate the single largest expansion of totalitarian power in history, exposing citizens to unprecedented levels of government and corporate surveillance, data mining, and behavioral control. The stakes could not be higher.
And if things continue on the current path, Corbishley makes clear, getting back to “normal” is never happening. Put simply, instead of a return to normality, we will see the creation of a starkly different form of existence in which most of us will have virtually no agency over our own lives.

Editorial Reviews
Review
“Nick Corbishley exposes the intricate web spun by global predators using the principles of mass formation psychosis in order to drive an agenda of worldwide injection of biologically active substances. People entranced in fear and confusion feel their entire existence depends on periodic receipt of grossly unsafe and ineffective products―all to live the day-by-day existence they had grown to expect. Corbishley unwinds this madness into an understandable framework with chilling insights about the loss of medical freedom that is inextricably linked to loss of social and economic freedoms. This book is an emergency read.”―Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH; chief medical advisor, Truth for Health Foundation
“Scanned by Nick Corbishley is essential reading; this book explains in an incontrovertible way how ‘vaccine passports’ have already closed off basic human liberties in many parts of the formerly free world, and shines a light on the mounting layers of dystopia and control for which they form the foundation. No one should risk missing the information in this book.”―Naomi Wolf, New York Times best-selling author of The End of America and Outrages
“‘Show me your papers’ is a phrase that should send chills down the spine of any thinking person. The idea that we would bar free citizens from access to public life because they have chosen to say, ‘No, thank you’ to a pharmaceutical intervention for religious, medical, or philosophical reasons is breathtakingly wrong. Nick Corbishley’s outstanding new book, Scanned, explains why. Anyone who cares about public health and personal freedom needs this book.”―Jennifer Margulis, PhD, award-winning science journalist and best-selling author
“The rollout of ‘vaccine passports’ and the broader pseudo-medical social-segregation system they are part of is among the most sinister and alarming threats we have faced in our lifetimes. Under the pretense of ‘keeping us safe and healthy,’ governments, supranational governing entities, and tech corporations have colluded to impose unprecedented restrictions and surveillance on people all around the world. Scanned unpacks the logical insanity of the official ‘vaccine passport’ narrative and describes how mass COVID hysteria has been instrumentalized to consolidate not only wealth and power, but biometric control over ordinary citizens.”―C. J. Hopkins, award-winning playwright, novelist, and political satirist

Nick Corbishley covers the gamut on the absurdity of vaccine certificates and passports and how they de facto serve no logical or real purpose or function in relation to an epidemic or pandemic. So what is really going on?
He points out how governments, including the EU itself, are blatantly violating their own laws and constitutions in implementing these draconian measures. Like in Animal Farm, financial and political elites are above the law and above being vaccinated and utilizing vaccine passports, locking down, or quarantining.
The real game is Digital ID and a global Social Credit System. If implemented, it truly would mean the "end of history" and as Aldous Huxley remarked "the final revolution". Citizens would be scored on a daily basis according to their thoughts, actions, associations, health decisions, and more. With integration of the Vaccine Passport aka Digital ID aka Social Credit Score into social media and CBDCs and much more, one wrong move and you are penalized or effectively barred from life itself (e.g. work, travel, buying or selling). If a critical mass does not wake up in time and stop complying...we are indeed facing a final revolution.
