What happened to him? He was supposed to be the "COVID-19 Czar". Trump made a big deal about appointing him to manage the whole process but after about a week, he disappeared. No press conferences, no information, no anything. Maybe Governor Cuomo or Dr. Fauci took the wind out of his sails. Who knows?

As I can remember, the only ones with facial hair in my old congregation in the New York area were a couple of older Italian sisters.

What Is The Position Of Witnesses For People Who Are Inactive And Don’t Want To Be Bothered By Anyone?
by minimus ini used to have some close friends simply pay me a friendly visit or call to see how i was doing.. i am curious as to whether or not the society instructed witnesses to no longer check on inactive ones and treat them as marked or disfellowshipped..

I agree with you what you’re saying but I am perplexed still because all these years they have left me alone
Min .....
I can tell you, you probably are not shunned but rather "softly marked". As time goes on and people come, go and move, the "soft" becomes softer since less people even know you. There are many, many like you. They basically leave you alone, view you as a lost cause, but not "evil" in their view, just someone who has drifted away with little if any hope of returning.
I wouldn't take it too seriously. The elders, burned out in many congregations, have more important things to do to keep the CO happy when he visits. At this point, you are likely in their mind wasted time with nothing to report in a positive way to the CO.

The “simplified” congregation donation arrangement
by slimboyfat indid anyone else experience a nostalgic throwback to the 1990s when the latest watchtower announcements presented their demand for increased donations from congregations as a “simplified” arrangement?
5. adjustment to resolved congregation donations: in the past, the congregation was presented with multiple resolutions to donate funds to the branch office in support of vari- ous activities cared for by the organization.
this arrangement has been simplified.

I would expect a "simplified" donation amount would be to just send them a years worth of signed checks, leave the dollar amount blank, and let them take care of the rest.

I have a friend, Brother Fader who I often go fishing with. He was an MS about 20 years ago then made the fade over several years. I asked him several times if he gets calls or visits and he said he did for the first couple of years but basically after that he has only seen anyone when he was shopping or something. They were generally courteous but no one shunned, just basically chit-chat.
As newsheep mentioned, a lot is left up to the discretion of the local elders. If you go peacefully, there is much less of a chance for problems. If you say anything negative, at best you will be shunned.

I think WT might get access to software it can use to monitor people's faces and discern how they are listening/engaging.

I'm planning on wearing very dark glasses and putting one of those airline pillows around my neck to keep my head up.

I think they realized that everyone will have internet access and just having a basic website would only get people online and then they would start looking around more.
At least this way, they can flood the website with more stuff than anyone can watch so there is no reason to go anywhere else.
They follow the model of the Mormons; Internet, Roku, etc.
