Nothing but a leap of ten years. Once we have overcome COVID-19 in some way, we have a new mutation of the virus. We'll call it COVID-29 so it's not original. The disease is very contagious and we have returned to the situation already lived. But we're not at the same point. In 2029 we have safer mouths, in hospitals there are more newly created respirators and the tests develop faster. However, the disease continues to expand and new restrictive measures have been introduced that have been in place since the previous pandemic. Back from home to work/school and from home to home. With previous experience, it does not seem so traumatic, but on this occasion it will be quite different. Ten years is a very productive time to improve technologies and expand many applications. And not just in medicine or immunology. Legislative changes have also been made in the protection against health emergencies, which make it possible to implement new measures with regard to the population.

In 2029, only mobile phones are available for sale, which, although switched off, allow an exact location for satellites. However, whether mobile or not, the new ID integrates a chip emitter that lets you know the location. A device that can be of great help for rescue cases also informs who is out of the house in unauthorized hours. Not carrying it on is a great fine, but this time the fine does not come from the hand of the police patrol passing through the street. This information is recorded through a locator system that controls the entire territory and the fine is processed automatically. Both mobiles and chip-based documents facilitate knowledge of the devices that are together as a deterrent to associations of non-living people.

And it looks like cars. Despite the fact that those registered before 2027 were released, from that date they all have a driving computer that necessarily gives position. The location of the new cars is always monitored via the satellite network and if it leaves the established circulation area a warning message arrives at the time. The 7G technology just opened allows you to perform all these operations with incredible speed and accuracy.

However, it is still possible to leave all emitting devices at home and try to escape the control network. They already dare very little, after some have been “hunted” and have spread widely in the media. In fact, the drones that were once used on time by the police are now a characteristic element of the city sky. At present, it is much simpler to check that no one can overcome the limitations imposed. The police run and chase someone less often. The performance with drones assigned from the police center or from the home itself is a less stressful activity. These drones have the ability to identify each citizen's phone and ID, detecting who circulates in the street without documents. If the request for identification by the drone loudspeaker is rejected, then the patrol is approached, while the drone gives it the position of the fugitive. Drones have been equipped with many other functions, among others, through facial exploration to detect the absence of mouths among the road users or to read the registration number of all old cars circulating on the roads and to detect if they are outside their area. Another more controversial use is that of drones, which caused a great stir in the street and a controversy in Parliament, but which was finally approved by the agreement of some government and opposition parties: to control demonstrations by air and disperse people when they consider it necessary, launching irritating gases and using sonic guns. Drone technology has greatly improved since the US army began to use it as an element of attack in Afghanistan, proven in different war scenarios: Turkish attacks on the Kurds, persecution of Palestinian resistance by the Zionist occupiers, or the destruction caused by the Azeri army with great ease in the positions and war vehicles of the Armenians. There was a step from military use to police use, and this line of business has been greatly developed. At the same time, some states have legalized the use of the public route to suppress demonstrations and neutralize those considered terrorists in the middle of the street.

The development of these devices and applications has an important economic impact in the Basque Country. In fact, some of the components of the new phones, chip emitters and many drones that control the Basque streets and skies are made right here. The cluster, made up of universities, research centres and technology companies, has long been involved in the development and production of these control elements. Precisely, the Basque Plan of Science, Technology and Innovation, recently launched, is one of the main axes of the Basque Plan of Science, Technology and Innovation, collecting a notable injection of public money. Political leaders tell us that the economy resumes and that we are pioneers, and many workers are hopeful that messages will generate a lot of work and quality. New technological developments for Sustainable Development 8., 9. They conform to Objectives 11 and 17 and all applications have Euskera version. They also comply with the Code of Ethics approved in Europe. Here, at the moment, drones don't kill people. They are our angels observers, controlling us at every moment for our good, for the rage of some citizens, between the admiration and applause of others, and for the consent of a majority towards the inevitable.

That COVID-29 scenario is ten years away. Fiction science? Not much less. Such technology and infrastructure is a reality in 2020. Only a little bit of development, a more massive expansion and some legal changes are needed to make it happen by 2029. As with vaccines, the deadlines for realizing intentions can be greatly reduced with sufficient interest and funding. And, arguing for the situation of exception, the permissiveness towards the reinforced power in society will be of great help for the adoption of abstracts. No, it is not the object of this text to provide ideas in that direction. The heads of the centres of power and those moving in the new technology industry have long been. How far will they come/are we? As far as we can. That's why it's not worth taking a 10-year leap and predicting what they're bringing us. It's too close.
