Guest: 7Sees - Connecting the Dots of Control: Palantir, Flock Cameras & Data Centers

In this episode of the Free Thought Project podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with independent journalist 7sees, whose unique investigative style has been gaining serious attention. Known for his striking use of the Obsidian platform to create intricate “idea webs,” 7sees has developed a method of reporting that helps people connect the dots on everything from geopolitics to the technocratic rise of AI surveillance.

We kick off by exploring Palantir and the tentacles it has spread throughout the world. We then dive into his process: why he chose Obsidian, how it shapes his journalism, and why visualization is such a powerful tool for truth-seeking. From there, we dive deep into money and control systems and the end game of the technocrats. 

While some see cryptocurrency as the solution, 7sees argues both fiat and mainstream crypto are compromised — a point that leads us to discuss privacy tools like Zano and the broader fight for financial freedom.

The conversation winds through dark but necessary territory: the surveillance state, the creeping technocracy, and how censorship and financial control are converging. Even when our perspectives diverge — like on barter as a solution — the discussion sparks new ways of thinking about how to resist authoritarian creep.

We wrap with a challenge: if the technocratic police state is inevitable, what can we do to stave it off? And if we can’t stop it, how do we survive and escape?

This is a thought-provoking and raw episode with one of the most unique voices in independent media. (Length: 1:02:50)
