The question that must be asked is how people *non-consensually* got registered as members of political parties. What does choosing either of the two resignation reasons mean? "Erroneously Registered" and "Remain Partyless". Why is my resignation "pending"? Scroll down on orpp.ecitizen.go.ke/dashboard and you might see a "*STAGE: PENDING RESIGNATION*". Can you be re-registered afterwards "erroneously"? Is an individual who has access to the ecitizen account the ONLY entity that has the ability/and right to register oneself as a member of a party? If not, why?

As the digital currency(Just a ledger) will be 1:1 to all other forms of money that CBK has the legal right to issue, the question I ask is why every adult/person who has reached the age of consent doesn't have an account directly with the #CBK. It'll avoid inefficiencies such as going through intermediaries or special purpose vehicles when a nation is writhing in economical crisis such as what the last 2 years has been. As Scott Galloway has said during the pandemic "we need to be very harsh on companies but compassionate on households and people. You put money in people's pockets and they will spend it!". It would also spare the theatrics like what we saw in the US of cheques/checks containing an individual's signature. Also an idea I have heard and thought of in matters UHC. It involves the gov't/CBK directly depositing/marking up funds in your account every fiscal year and if you don't exhaust it you get to spend it on a holiday or anything else.

Central Bank of Kenya digital currency
by Mwendwa Kivuva 10 Feb '22

10 Feb '22

The Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) announces the issuance of a Discussion Paper on Central Bank Digital Currency for public comments. The Discussion Paper examines the applicability of a potential Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) in Kenya. It is part of CBK’s initiatives to ensure informed policy decisions regarding innovations. The Discussion Paper invites comments from the public to be considered when assessing the potential use case for CBDC in Kenya. DISCUSSION PAPER ON CBK DIGITAL CURRENCY. <https://www.centralbank.go.ke/uploads/discussion_papers/CentralBankDigitalC…> Rapid technological innovations and developments are accelerating the pace of digitalization. New digital payment methods have emerged to facilitate transactions, including CBDC, issued by central banks to serve as money in a digital form. Naturally, the balance of risks and benefits of CBDCs will vary from one economy to another. CBK has been closely monitoring these developments globally. Accordingly, CBK has prepared the Discussion Paper that outlines the evolution of payments globally and in Kenya and discusses recent digital payment methods including electronic money, CBDC, stable coins and other cryptocurrencies. It outlines Kenya’s payment landscape and assesses the potential applicability of CBDC. Further, it highlights the potential opportunities and risks presented by CBDC. To comprehensively evaluate the potential applicability of CBDC in Kenya, CBK requests for public comments on a number of questions. The written submissions or representations may be forwarded to the Director, Bank Supervision, P.O. Box 60000- 00200, Nairobi; hand-delivered to the Central Bank of Kenya Headquarters, Haile Selassie Avenue, Nairobi; emailed to fin(a)centralbank.go.ke; or submitted here <https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=iDnAe2MQA0q3bAMGlZhL4Ah…>to be received not later than Friday, May 20, 2022 at 5.00 p.m. ______________________ Mwendwa Kivuva, Nairobi, Kenya https://www.linkedin.com/in/mwendwa-kivuva

Can Digital Currency Help Kenya? CBK Has a Discussion Paper
by David Indeje 10 Feb '22

10 Feb '22

[image: image.png] Listers, As Central Banks explore possibilities of rolling out 'Central Bank Digitial Currency" - CBDC, Kenya is not being left out with an aim of meeting its future payments needs in a digital economy. As a result, the Central Bank of Kenya has developed a discussion paper centre on: 1. Kenya’s Payments Landscape 2. CBDC: Opportunities and Risks 3. Overview of Other Jurisdictions’ CBDC Projects and 4. Applicability of CBDC in Kenya "It is quite apparent that CBDCs are receiving more attention than ever before. However, a key point to note is that despite the traction in attention, the motivations for the issuance of CBDCs vary across countries, as do the policy approaches and technical designs. Further, CBDC design and the potential benefits of a Kenyan CBDC remain unclear, similar to many jurisdictions across the world. Issuing a CBDC could also pose considerable risks." CBK at it Conclusion.

Facebook advisory on sharing of private residential addresses and images
by Mwendwa Kivuva 08 Feb '22

08 Feb '22

Meta's Oversight Board has given guidance on policies related to the sharing of private residential addresses and images, and the contexts in which that information may be published on Facebook and Instagram. Among its recommendations, the Board advises that Meta: - Remove the exception that allows the sharing of private residential information when considered “publicly available.” - Create a specific communications channel for victims of doxing, which Meta respond to swiftly, and is available to people on and off of Meta’s platforms. - Consider violations of its Privacy Violations policy as “severe,” immediately suspending user accounts where the sharing of private residential information is clearly related to malicious action that creates a risk of violence or harassment.

Good day, I have gotten a text from #Safaricom that reads: Tired of promotional messages? Simply send an SMS to 100 to STOP Chargeable > Services and Promotional messages > >From the ToS and contracts one signs on when registering a line, do they mention you'll be used as a pinata for the marketing just like the assault that are billboards with some even having flashing lights. Have these legal documents been revised, if this wasn't present, just like what "internet" applications do? Is this a tyranny of the default? Should it be this way? I also haven't forgotten that #Safaricom wants to sell location data, the American Telco style *https://www.businessdailyafrica.com/corporate/companies/Safaricom-to-monetise-customer-location-data/4003102-5408828-dvf39cz/index.html <https://www.businessdailyafrica.com/corporate/companies/Safaricom-to-moneti…>* Yours Kindly, Adrian ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: Ali Hussein <ali(a)hussein.me.ke> > To: "Kenya's premier ICT Policy engagement platform" < > kictanet(a)lists.kictanet.or.ke> > Cc: > Bcc: > Date: Tue, 1 Feb 2022 22:48:16 +0300 > Subject: Re: [kictanet] Safaricom battling pricing power with CA > On this issue both entities are to blame:- > > 1.
