Creepy Nestlé “We Will Find You” Contest Uses Chip to Track “Winner”

95

A new contest involving Nestlé candy bars makes the concept of a highly monitored police state fun and exciting…for idiots. The ominously titled “We Will Find You” contest places a tracking chip inside the “winning” candy bar, allowing the Nestlé HQ to track winners via satellite and to dispatch a team to give them their prize. The TV ad states:

“The bar will be equipped with a GPS signaling device. When activated, it will beam a signal into space via satellite and will return to earth. This will alert a secret control room who will scramble a crack team of highly trained individuals. They will board a helicopter, find the special bar and give the winner 10,000£.”

Here’s the ad.

So, to sum up, winners of the contest are tracked and found by a swap team who “arrest” them as if they were terrorists or enemies of the state. However, instead of beating the crap out of them and sending them to undisclosed jails, they give them 10,000£. You see how a police state is fun? Friendly agents jump out of helicopter and give you money! It’s perfect!…until they’ll use the same techniques to beat the crap out of dissidents and send them to undisclosed jails.

I fully agree with the general consensus here that this promotion leaves a lot to be desired. I think I'll skip this contest, Nestle, thank you very much!

Searching around for the exact manner in which winners will be tracked down, I found this explanation:

"The ‘We Will Find You’ competition will see GPS chips placed in six chocolate bar wrappers. The GPS Golden Ticket is not activated when the candy bar is opened. The winner has to turn it on. The tracker Nestle is using is “essentially mobile phone technology specifically developed for this project,” says a spokesperson. “When a winning bar is found, consumers simply pull on the tab to activate the device.” Within 24 hours the winner will be located by a helicopter, which has a team on board to hand-deliver a briefcase containing £10,000 in cash.”

Saw the ad for this the other day and I knew VC would have something to say about it. It's the last time I buy a bar of Nestlé, that's for sure.

well i have just eaten a Yorkie and now i may or may not have a chip in me that is a GPS tracker. Dam who will it be removed. ? or will i just pass it the next time i,am on the lavatory. If so tracking it down the pan will make it a bit difficult to find in all that brown stuff. LOL

heh. irony.

if the winner was offered a free cancer treatment, or a ticket to 'the island' it'd raise a lot more red flags and people would get it… but if we were already living in those times people would be denying the island existed and cancer was the normal cause of death anyway.

the bar is always raised, the frog is always in hotter water, the limits are always being pushed.. and everyone will always think this is just the way things are..

..so yeah.. no problem at all with this one.. where the system goons track someone and drop out of the sky and throw money at them.. this all seems perfectly normal to me

and because the world *is* the way it is, everyone is going to think this *is* perfectly normal.

what's the next zany nwo promotion? -watch for UFO's with robbie williams on his private island?

i thought about that too.. the commercial depicts the systemite as opening the candy upon leaving the store, i first assumed the extensive cctv surveillance captured the act and the rest writes itself.. not so if the candy was opened in a citizens 'private' home, or out on the moors.. how would a camera spot this, how would a camera even know the significance of what it was seeing? (and we'll leave the facial recognition and extremity tracking software for another day) so it all comes down to the wrapper itself if the claims in the ad are valid. i would think there's a GPS triangulation method in that wrapper, probably activated when the seal is broken, identification and any required tracking of the victim (uhh, i mean winner) taken over by combined surveillance methods (if the person were to then catch a train for example) ..nice little field test… Read more »

I think it's an 'interesting' tactic on the part of the Nestle marketing department – for one it does what it says on the tin – increases sales – but since you've got to sell a lot of chocolate to make that money back …. I'd guess this is funded by a market research budget … by encouraging people to keep their wrappers, they can track consumer movements for a period of time in order to refine future marketing tactics (they can determine where people go after buying a chockie, where they're being eaten, how many are eaten at the same address what time they're eaten, etc. I bet there's a tech company at the backend with a database and system for analysis – I'd expect to see this sort of tactic from other big corporations competing for a vastly reduced consumer spend in future. In terms of the bigger… Read more »

Does anyone remember that lady who went through mind control and painted all those paintings? She kept saying don't take the candy. They probably have ways of putting any type of tracking or drug into any candy or anything for that matter. They tried to do use the tracking devices at old navy and people had no idea. Tracking is in our phones, some credit cards, cars and probably in my computer.

I don't want anything to do with that contest.

would have been great if you would have been honest… "MOCHIP = MissOuri CHild IDentification & Protection program. We do not use Microchips or any other invasive "chips."" The program consists of five major components: Digital Photographs Digital Fingerprints Child Information and Emergency contacts Dental bite impression Two (2) laminated ID cards Yep no RFID or "microchips". Only thing I can think of is they can hide a microchip in the ID Cards because honestly… nowadays people put hidden rfid chips inside the card, however if I'm thinking it's just a card print out thats laminated as they say, it's not really a big deal unless they slip a rfid chip in the lamination. All these people are doing is taking digital pictures and digital fingerprints and general information and producing 2 lamined ID Cards. Than again it could be a secret program to steal your kid for the globalists.… Read more »

I sincerely doubt that food regulations would permit placing a microchip or any foreign substance in a candy bar, even in "specially marked packs" or whatever.

But yes, the ad looks geared to make people wish they were the guy being targeted by the SWAT team. Ghastly in all respects.

This is a test run, to see how fast they can nab anyone they want with the chip technology. I think the shootings are the same kind of thing. They are testing their ability to train assassins who will kill according to the administered mind control program. I think they are also subjecting a specialized police force to such programming, so to dissolve all ties to nationalism and remove any inhibitions to following through with an assignment to do whatever they want them to do. I've met some brutal cops myself who seemed to get a weird kick out of verbally abusing simple ordinary citizens for minor infractions like jaywalking, I mean, they are over the top and seem like they are on speed or something like it. Something IS going on and being perpetrated and planned, it's become obvious. The army of the Antichrist and his New World Order… Read more »

Behavioral conditioning to totalitarian creepiness aside, I am amazed they could cram this into a package that weighs the same as a candy bar.

My first though was GeoPro http://www.geoprosolutions.com/solution/

It might be cellular based relay signal, and probably a very small and limited battery regardless. Could check to see if Nestle marketing pukes bought GeoPro subscription services.

System is going to collapse, so might as well think of ways to repurpose the creepy sociopath tech for practical and marketable ventures. Can't wait to see what folks can do with the creepy AI flying the drones and scanning all the databases http://www.imagination-engines.com/

Pizza delivery by quadcopter drones?

Autonomous cars and information tailored to your productive means? Plenty of good to potentially come out of this phase of horrid government indulgence, for those that survive it.

Basically they are saying two things: how bad do you want the candy and how desperate are you for the money? This is just a prime example of them using our survival instincts against us and getting us to accept their control- and they get away with it because most of us can't control ourselves and say no to what they are dangling in front of us- and then when we can no longer resist they will force us to bow and beg and become their dogs!

To all whos comments (in response to this & ALL the other articles) are Auto-Respone is FEAR. Look, I realize it's Hard to overcome such a Powerful human emotion, but Try! Fear is exactly one of the top reactions "they" precisely Want!! I see SO much either Auto: Fear and/or Hate. Hate being the; Conflict/arguing/namecalling/bashing/ect among "truthers." Who needs a NWO to make us all fight one another, when we do a Much better job??

Again, I know strong human emotions, that we All have, such as hate and fear are HARD to conquer; but there are Much stronger and Powerful ones you don't have to conquer, such as HOPE.

My opinions. Peace and Love.

That's also the problem with this website as most of thes conspiracy-websites, Deadpopstar. It's true that people learn more from this website however when VC often informs about musicvideos doing the same things, movies with the same agenda, massmedia etc, then we so called "more enlighten ones" acts like sheeps under the banner of being vigilant, which is NOT much better than the other sheeps. Revealing information and making it into conspiracies is also a powerful weapon towards the masses (a word I detest but will use for now) in order to spread chaos and less motivated for more happy thoughts/reduced spiritual life. These theories are sadly (sometimes) consuming people from (maybe) one of the purposes of life, that is (I believe) finding the real truth (inner truth if you will) and actually living your life. If you truly want to live happy then knowledge is not the whole answer,… Read more »

Thank You for your response filled with Many things I have been Trying to say on other articles.

I feel as if, whats the point in repeating these things that nobody Sees or just dismisses because it is not the general opinion on here; or worse attacks me.
