    What do you think “15 minute city” refers to?

    Since it sounds like you think it’s this

    Celestini explained that the conspiracy theory behind 15-minute cities is that it’s a form of government take-over.

    People are fearful of a scenario where people would have digital identifications on them and would be forced to stay within a 15-minute radius around their homes, and that if people traveled beyond those boundaries, they would be tracked and targeted in different ways.

    It isn’t. No one is trying to do that.
