    oh great thank you for the info. i am eager to listen to the interviews!!! speaking of icloud, i always have thought there was a connection between it and the akashic records... perhaps one in the same? or just somehow related? anyway off to go listen. thanks!
    Hello! As I understand it, cloud computing takes out a plot of processing space on a remote server for an individual customer to use for data storage.

    Also, this external slice of processor is also used to manage application software for various companies.

    Basically, a data company takes a rack of servers like these ...



    ... and dices it up. It then sells these various plots to companies and individuals who want to use it to store information or run applications.


    Here are some relevant excerpts from the "How Stuff Works" website:
    Remote machines owned by another company would run everything from e-mail to word processing to complex data analysis programs. It's called cloud computing, and it could change the entire computer industry.

    In a cloud computing system, there's a significant workload shift. Local computers no longer have to do all the heavy lifting when it comes to running applications. The network of computers that make up the cloud handles them instead. Hardware and software demands on the user's side decrease. The only thing the user's computer needs to be able to run is the cloud computing system's interface software, which can be as simple as a Web browser, and the cloud's network takes care of the rest.
    There's a good chance you've already used some form of cloud computing. If you have an e-mail account with a Web-based e-mail service like Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail or Gmail, then you've had some experience with cloud computing. Instead of running an e-mail program on your computer, you log in to a Web e-mail account remotely. The software and storage for your account doesn't exist on your computer -- it's on the service's computer cloud.

    [...]

    How will cloud computing affect other industries? There's a growing concern in the IT industry about how cloud computing could impact the business of computer maintenance and repair. If companies switch to using streamlined computer systems, they'll have fewer IT needs. Some industry experts believe that the need for IT jobs will migrate to the back end of the cloud computing system.

    Another area of research in the computer science community is autonomic computing. An autonomic computing system is self-managing, which means the system monitors itself and takes measures to prevent or repair problems. Currently, autonomic computing is mostly theoretical. But, if autonomic computing becomes a reality, it could eliminate the need for many IT maintenance jobs.

    Source: http://computer.howstuffworks.com/cl...computing3.htm
    It seems like this is just another step towards further integration/assimilation of information and technological autonomy. Undoubtedly, it does have it's advantages ... but again, I'm thinking along the lines of what we're moving towards.

    Cloud computing appears as a movement of the major computing from local systems to centralized systems over the Internet.

    But I would suggest that at its heart, it's a bit different than that.

    For one thing, both local and central computing power continues to increase rapidly. Most cell phones today (even my dumb one) are more powerful than the centralized server that I and a few dozen of my colleagues shared, some decades ago. So this is not so much a "movement" of compute power, as it is a continuing escalation of compute power, and evolution of interfaces.

    Rather I'd suggest that what's happening, and has been happening throughout those many decades, is increasing location independence, moving up the hierarchy of interfaces. At first it was just simple file transfer, such as in uucp, and simple terminal escape sequences, as interpreted by an ADM 3A CRT, which were understood and agreed to by both the "server" and the "local" or "client" computer (which might have been just a rather dumb glass CRT).

    Within the last decade or two, we have established the Web, which has browsers running locally interacting via increasingly sophisticated versions of HTML and other such interfaces with web servers. The local system handles the display and other human interaction and can use local resources, such as the printer or disk, as well as, of course, local CPU and memory.

    Now, with "cloud" computing, more elaborate interfaces are being established across the Internet, such as various compute, storage and database capabilities.

    This provides a choice, which system implementors can make, as to where to physically locate various compute, storage and database capabilities. For example, in the last year, we (the Avalon Forum admins) have changed how we backup the forum, from doing it locally within the backup servers provided by our Internet Service Provider (ISP -- Singlehop) to doing it, in part, "in the cloud", to Amazon's cloud servers, via a higher level protocol.

    As both the local side and the remove server side gain more power, an inexorable and fairly rapid evolution over the last half century, systems and applications have increasingly been designed less to optimize local resource usage, and more to abstract out locality dependencies, in order to allow for optimizing other essential properties.

    Hand in hand with the increasing power of central servers, now that major strides in very large (1000's of CPU's and terabytes of RAM) multiprocessor systems have been made in the last decade or two, comes also a rapid increase in the wide spread availability of local compute power, with far more people making use of cell phones than were able to make good use of desktop PC's (which require more local investment and administrative expertise.) It is these two, parallel, changes of late that are driving "cloud" computing. Applications that did not need to be virtually abstracted above locality details, when there was a few million PC's, now do need to be so abstracted, when there are few billion cell phone users.

    Wow! At this point of today, I need to re-read a lot above, and hopefully will have time to view/listen to all the good stuff.

    Also, I did a quick search on the pineal gland - and here's a link if anyone wants more on that. http://projectavalon.net/forum/archi...hp/t-1539.html It'll take a month to read it,,,but it's good.

    I wanted to find an Mp3 on a talk I have, on tape, by Lazarus on reactivating the pineal gland. Can't find it.

    I have the tape but don't even a machine I can play it on any more. Darn.

    Whew! This thread is a full time job! (compliment Vivek and all posters!).

    Here are some excerpts from an article Richard M. Dolan entitled, A Breakaway Civilization: What It Is, and What It Means for Us.
    Today, the U.S. maintains a massive secrecy infrastructure, with untold billions (or trillions?) having been siphoned off into it, year after year. In other words, we know that the classified world has an astonishing amount of money and deep secrecy. There is no question of this. What we want to ask is: how advanced is their technology? What key breakthroughs might they have learned?

    By way of illustration, I will relate something told to me by a scientist formerly with the National Security Agency. During a private conversation, he told me that at least some computers within the NSA were running at a clock speed of 650 MHz during the mid-1960s. Today, of course, that’s well below the speed of an entry-level PC desktop computer. Keep in mind, however, that this speed was not matched by the consumer market until around the year 2000, a difference of 35 years. Indeed, there were no consumer-market computers in 1965!

    Also recall that in 1965, the NSA was only just barely being discussed by the public. Its very existence had been classified at its creation in 1952, and its name was mentioned for the first time, vaguely and in passing, in a 1957 government manual. Only in 1964 was it subject to (a very partial) discussion in a published book. In other words, the NSA had the most advanced computing capabilities in the world, and almost nobody in the world even knew it existed.

    Now ask yourself, given (a) great secrecy, (b) great amounts of money, (c) several decades, (d) enough genius-level scientists working for you, and (e) extraterrestrial or alien technology to study, is it possible for key breakthroughs to be made without the rest of the world ever learning of them? Breakthroughs so substantial that they create new areas of scientific study, new technologies, new capabilities, new interactions with these “others,” and as a result a radically new understanding of humanity itself and the cosmos within which we live?

    [...]

    I should think that members of the breakaway civilization might despair of ever educating the rest of humanity on what is going on. Their own reality is probably so far beyond our own, they may rightfully ask, how can they bring us up to speed without causing a worldwide psychological meltdown?

    But as I have felt for some time, neither they nor the “others” are the only game in town. The great variable in the secrecy equation is ourselves. That is, the mainstream human civilization that is currently undergoing the most radical transformation in its history. In a mere century we have gone from a society of horses pulling carts to one of advanced computing and space travel. As I have stated in a number of lectures, most experts in the field of artificial intelligence believe we are a mere generation away from the day when your computer will be talking to you, claiming to be a conscious entity. You may well accept that claim. Then there is the future of nanotech, biotech, and quantum computing. Just as Voltaire would not recognize our world today, we can scarcely imagine the world that will exist a mere half-century from now.

    Extract from Part 3 of Bill Deagle's December 2006 Granada Forum lecture:

    I was flying, back three years ago from New York City, and I was sitting beside a senior Sony executive in New York up in first-class and I said: "Well, what’s new in Sony?"

    He said: "Well, we’ve got this new supercomputer. It’s a laptop."

    And I said: "Oh, that’s cool. I bet it uses micro-laser-optic logic."

    He said: "How did you know that? That’s classified."

    I said: "My buddy that worked with Signal Saturn Systems was a senior NSA, and the guy who used to knock off sleepers after World War II, had one on his desk in 1962."

    It wasn’t human technology. Most of the technologies that you think that we have did not originate in the human mind. These are technologies that have been transferred and trickled. They have technologies that are so far beyond the basis of the human mind and imagination, you can’t even imagine it.

    Hey folks,

    Here´s another study, called Our Fragile Intellect, by Professor Gerald Crabtree, who heads a genetics laboratory at Stanford University in California.

    He says, among other things, that human intelligence, coupled with emotional control, peaked about thousands years ago, and modern society and technological evolution have been making us considerably stupider.

    Hunter-gatherer man

    The human brain and its immense capacity for knowledge evolved during this long period of prehistory when we battled against the elements

    Athenian man

    The invention of agriculture less than 10,000 years ago and the subsequent rise of cities such as Athens relaxed the intensive natural selection of our “intelligence genes”.

    Couch-potato man

    As genetic mutations increase over future generations, are we doomed to watching soap-opera repeats without knowing how to use the TV remote control?

    iPad man

    The fruits of science and technology enabled humans to rise above the constraints of nature and cushioned our fragile intellect from genetic mutations.

    --------------------------------

    So, It´s important to ask if advances in medicine, coupled with technological advances, were deliberately created with the purpose of making us genetically weaker and stupider.

    I believe we´re indeed devolving. The "survival of the fittest" may sound cruel for us, but it is what drives evolution and refinement of genetic code.

    Now, we´re living in an environment that allows for the survival and reproduction of even the weakest of us, and surrounded by technology that stimulates the stagnation of our cognitive functions.

    In long term evolution, if you don´t use it, you lose it. If computers are gradually doing all intellectual tasks for us, the trend is that computers will become more intelligent and we will become more stupid.

    Cheers,

    Raf.

    Yes. Here's a good summary article about Crabtree's views:

    More stupid and/or more hypnotized.

    Mike Adams just wrote quite a good article on this. Here is an excerpt:
    Hypnosis is the process of reshaping the mind's interpretation of sensory data. Through hypnosis, a person could be holding a red toy fire truck in their hands but told the fire truck is actually green. When asked what color the fire truck is, they will answer, "Green!"

    The success of hypnosis relies on the suggestibility hard-wired into a person's brain. Some people are far more suggestible than others. Those of us who are leaders in "alternative news" tend to be the least suggestible of all, while those who produce and consume mainstream media news are the most suggestible (and therefore gullible).

    Successful hypnosis on a national scale requires a masterful hypnotist. That's Obama, one of the most brilliant hypnotists ever observed in the history of politics. Obama's skill is so good that he can tell you he's doing the exact opposite of what he's actually doing, and most people listening will believe every word he says. Obama is creating jobs. Obama is protecting your rights. And the fire truck is green.

    If you are immune to hypnosis, then you share my frustrating in living in a nation of hypnotized people. I want to shout to people, "The fire truck is RED!" but of course this makes no sense to them, as they've been hypnotized into thinking it's green.

    I personally would have to disagree with Mike Adams on this one; I think this brainwave and thought pattern manipulation technology is quite different than hypnosis...

    More stupid and/or more hypnotized.

    If you are immune to hypnosis, then you share my frustrating in living in a nation of hypnotized people. I want to shout to people, "The fire truck is RED!" but of course this makes no sense to them, as they've been hypnotized into thinking it's green.

    I personally would have to disagree with Mike Adams on this one; I think this brainwave and thought pattern manipulation technology is quite different than hypnosis...

    I haven't quite figured out why I think this yet
    I would say that the brain wave mapping and the technology that emits subliminal messages and frequencies is hypnosis on steroids. Trying to trap those who are not suggestible with an even finer net.

    Obama remains but the puppet being manipulated by the master puppeteers.

    Hypnosis seems to me to be taking you and oveshadowing your thought processes. They are still there but kind of semi dormant. As if from the outside (senses) to the inside. But the basis of thinking abilities remains albeit covered up and influenced, and also passing by the subconscious or by the unconscious. But here, the thinking ability remains even is shadowed.

    Brain wave technology displaces your thought processes, as if it is taking it by the roots and pulling it out. It hijacks the thinking process. It implements thoughts that are not yours to start with (from outside, but not form your senses), and implement them INSTEAD of your own thinking. You do not have the opportunity to even create thinking. Thinking is short circuited. The reduction in language abilities does help bring one to the same level, because thought is more difficult to form without language, therefore the short circuits are easier to implement. TElepahty and thinking through picture would help improve ones own thinking in such environment as long as images do not start being projected in the brain directly (which, in my idea, is already happening through the video and youtube culture, but not directly in the brain yet, as language is). So brainwave technologies are much more than hypnosis on steroid, in my idea, no common measure. That much more harmful.

    This is my own opinion, not based on research that I am aware of.

    James Holmes, the Aurora shooter is a good example.....at his arraignment? (first court appearance) he was zapped and looked as if he didn't have a clue nor slept in a week, if he was hypnotized he would of looked well rested and much more alert IMO.

    -------------------------

    Hacking the Mind - Hypnosis, NLP, and Shellcode



    The brain is like an biocomputer. Language is like programming code. Therefore, the brain can be hacked by the clever use of sound (language and/or subliminal messages) and light (EM spectrum).

    Kyle Griffith commented on how magical languages are analogous to computer languages. Allowing the magician to hack the system (he also warned against doing this).
    Griffith has noticed that much of the literature on operational magic resembles manuals for using computer systems. For example, lists of "secret names" and "words of power" seem directly analogous to passwords for accessing computer files and commands for instructing the system to perform specific functions. He also see a resemblance between "magical languages" like Enochian and computer languages. The same holds true of numerological and literological systems. And many magical spells and incantations have a structural similarity to computer programs.

    [...]

    This form of electronic mind control is extremely powerful, and much more is expressed in electronic signals than an analysis of the surface message indicates.

    [...]

    Many of these subliminal messages have the same effect on the human mind, which on one level is computer software, as programming commands sent into an computer. In other words, receipt of a group of machine-language symbols by your mind causes a particular program to start running, if you are in the correct state of consciousness and if your mind possesses the program in the first place.

    Source: https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...l=1#post637190
    I think the same analogies could be applied to hypnosis and the central nervous system.

    Fritz Springmeier also has a lot of very interesting material about hypnosis.
    During the hypnotic trance, the human mind is at the pinnacle of its ability to quickly learn. What might take years to learn and weighing the evidence, will be accepted quickly by the victim’s subconscious. The mind strings together a series of "cognitive mental demons?? that is a series of mental processes--similar to how a computer programmer writes a program. These strings have been called K-lines. Much of what the mind does is simply activations of various K-lines (a habitual ways of doing things), so that the mind can focus its limited conscious thinking. The mind also takes micronemes (such things as a particular aroma, or a particular intonation for which it has no word, but for which it has a series of sensory clues) and builds these into K-lines too. Once a K-line works, the mind in order to prevent itself from making reckless changes, gives priority to those K-lines. Under hypnosis, the mind willingly allows the hypnotist to change K-lines without the normal unconscious conservative restraints. Under behavior modification techniques, abnormal K-lines (that is K-lines that wouldn’t normally develop) can be forced into the mind.

    [...]

    Let us suppose for the sake of discussion that as you are reading this, it is supper time. You are hungry. You’ve starved yourself all day, and even though you are on a strict diet, you are trying to think of a good restaurant to go to. Now let’s see, as your mind scans the different possibilities, it thinks of some that are close, some that are quick. some that have lots of easy parking and others that have good looking waitresses.

    [...]

    Recognition Cognitive Demon Processes go running through the mind, "shouting" the wishes of the Intention store. A number of lower level cognitive demon processes wake up and make themselves known if they identify with what the recognition demon is shouting about. Many may think they match the request, but other demon processes check them out to see how close they match. Now the checkers come up with a list of cognitive demon processes who are concerned with eating at restaurants, who have woken up and are all scrambling for attention. Cognitive demon processes establish themselves in families, and develop relationships that are automatic. (Cognitive Demons do not die, but some go to sleep and others can get somewhat rusty in their relationships.) The "demons" that respond to the shouting of our recognition demon go through a series of "interviews" with a hierarchy of other demon processes, and soon the messenger demon can rush back to the Intention Store with the name of the choices available.

    All this happens extremely quick. If the mind did not set up a series of automatic cognitive demon processes that become habits, (called K-lines) it would find itself involved in the conscious relearning of trivial matters that would make it impossible to get much accomplished. Every skill would have to be constantly relearned. A person might easily end up spending all day dressing. As long as the mind remains in a static environment, where habits work, it’s great. But life is such a changing environment, that our entrenched habits can cause the mind to pull up a cognitive demonic process out of habit, when it is neither wanted nor appropriate.

    Emotions and needs (which are tied to our emotions) will trigger the mind to search out cognitive demon processes. For instance, if our emotional need for someone we are looking for is great, let’s say a wife waiting for a long expected war-husband, it may send a need down the brain for the cognitive demons that are attached to the identification of the long-awaited person, and the mind triggers itself to see his face in the crowd at the busy railway station before its owner arrives.

    Cognitive Demon Processes live in close proximity to other demons, and when one gets excited, others in the area do too, although their excitement may be much less. If a cognitive demon is being used a great deal, it will be on its toes, but little used demons can go to sleep, and somehow need to be hollowed at very loud to wake up.

    The Intention System after a while will set itself on autopilot for certain mental functions, which frees the conscious mind for other problems. The conscious mind can only focus on a small amount of material--it is like a computer which has limited memory. It is constantly in a state of redeployment, and the Intentions system has only a small sway over how the Attention part of the mind decides to focus. The Attention part constantly asks itself, which tasks can be relegated to habit. Then when the Intention system sends out cognitive search demons, they do not have to involve the conscious mind, because everything that is habitual is set up like a script, with families of "cognitive demon processes" already knowing the roles/relationships they are to play. (Again, Behavior modification is used to strengthen the relationships of demonic processes, and to make some well used and awake, so that certain behaviors become habits.) When our minds meditate or go into a hypnotic trance, what is occurring is that our conscious mind is delegating its limited computing memory for the focus of its attention upon one object. What happens to the cognitive demon processes that would normally take instructions from the conscious mind?

    During meditation the untrained cognitive demon processes bubble up to the top of the conscious mind. However, the opposite happens during hypnosis. During hypnosis, the mind has made the decision (for whatever reasons) to accept control statements from the hypnotist. The mind has surrendered or at least temporarily or partially abdicated his or her position as the master of his or her Intention System. Some of this power is given away. The hypnotist now has access and control over many or all the cognitive demonic processes, including some that the person would not normally activate. Cognitive demon processes that are asleep or deeply buried can be accessed by the hypnotist, in a much quicker direct way than the Intention System would. By suggesting that the subject has a cat on his lap, the hypnotist is actually causing the recognition cognitive demon processes to wake up and act out their jobs to such an extent that the subject sees a cat. By suggesting that the subject’s body stiffen, the hypnotist has gained control over those cognitive action demons that cause the body to stiffen. Age-regression brings up demons that are associated with the subject’s childhood.

    Although it is unpopular to admit publicly that the hypnotist has power over the subject, a close look at the process of how hypnosis works at the neuronal "cognitive demon process" level shows that the hypnotist has indeed been given power. In fact, the hypnotist has been given power to activate cognitive units of demon processes that the mind itself would allow to remain inactive or asleep. The mind would not normally use its ability to activate them. Today, it is politically incorrect to admit that the hypnotist has power to make an individual do what they wouldn’t normally want to do, but unfortunately hypnosis does give this power.

    Lastly, here is a brief overview of the fundamental concepts behind Dr. John Lilly's book, Programming and Metaprogramming in the Human Biocomputer.
    The term human biocomputer, coined by John C. Lilly, refers literally to the "hardware" of the human anatomy. This would include the brain, internal organs, and other human organ systems such as cardiovascular, digestive, endocrine, immune, integumentary, lymphatic, muscular, nervous, reproductive, respiratory, skeletal, and urinary systems. The biocomputer has stored program properties, and self-metaprogramming properties, with limits determinable and to be determined.

    [...]

    The levels of the human biocomputer are explained thus: Levels from one to two are the boundaries between external reality and the body. Certain energies and materials (heat, light, sound, food, and secretions) pass through this boundary in special places. Levels two to three are the boundaries of body and brain, in which special structures such as blood vessels, nerve fibers, and cerebrospinal fluid pass. Levels four through eleven are in the brain circuitry, and is the software inside the biocomputer. Levels after ten are termed unknown. This is to allow an openeness for future scientific research, and discoveries.

    [...]

    Mind, which is defined as the sum total of all the programs and metaprograms (and even supraself metaprograms) of a human biocomputer. This is the software and is looked at as the opposite of the hardware.

    [...]

    The brain is defined as the visible, palpable living set of structures to be included in the human biocomputer.

    [...]

    A stored program is defined as a set of instructions which are placed in memory storage of the biocomputer, and which control the biocomputer when orders are given for that program to be activated. These programs can be activated by the same biocomputer, another biocomputer, or a situation outside of the biocomputer.

    [...]

    Metaprogramming is defined as a set of instructions, descriptions, and implementations of related thoughts and actions(programs). Self metaprogramming involves the creation, revision, and reorganization of programs and metaprograms.

    Thanks Selene a very strange case of reality disorder....When she was shouting at the police 'Dont take my organs'
    and to be diagnosed with ..' A puff of madness ' seems very strange.

    Were the cryptic subtitles supposed to be part of it ? They were wierd .



    PLEASE EXERCISE DISCRETION, SOME HAVE FOUND THIS VIDEO DISTURBING.
    Now that belongs in the psychic attacks, Horus-Ra and the Hitchhikers thread and is very very interesting, even more interesting was the completely blank expression on her face, she looked like she was recording the whole experience through "someones" eyes it seemed, trying to knock the offensive voices out in her head with a hammer fits very nice in the picture imo, very odd remark she made when she was hit by the car and the officers tried to help her "they are trying to steal my organs" well whooptydoo, how about that one eh, abduction/experimentation case here? This one stinks, and the bad part is, there was a camera present at this incident, how about all the cases we never hear about and where there are no cameras present.

    I have a nice story about a client who layed between the train tracks a few times just to see what it was like to get run over by a train, giving the driver a heartattack and smoking a cigarette quite calm after that.

    Last year some time around spring, I did some research on ionization and the effects on the human mind. That along with the chemtrails will cause aggressive behaviors. Ions were experimented on in the 70's when they did research on the ozone layer and ionization. Isn't HAARP releasing ions into the atmosphere when they launch it's high frequency?
    Just saying when Prince and others were talking about the content of the chemtrails over their cities, it seemed the people were just angry to be angry. Now think a moment about the musical and sometimes violent music that had been coming out as well as the lyrics and the movies of zombies attacking and detachment of compassion in thoughts during video game use. Have you seen someone when they are losing a game? They are like super hype and snappy.

    There are many surface projects going on at once (just imagine what's classified).

    It's only a short matter of time before they all tighten together more and more.

    Moore's Law, Law of Accelerated Returns, the singularity.

    The hardware is developing at an exponential rate. Again, these are just the surface projects.

    Following up on this post - MoNETA: A Mind Made From Memristors

    DARPA is also funding another project, as mentioned in the post above. It's called SyNAPSE.
    Researchers at IBM have been working on a cognitive computing project called Systems of Neuromorphic Adaptive Plastic Scalable Electronics (SyNAPSE). By reproducing the structure and architecture of the brain—the way its elements receive sensory input, connect to each other, adapt these connections, and transmit motor output—the SyNAPSE project models computing systems that emulate the brain's computing efficiency, size and power usage without being programmed.

    IBM is combining principles from nanoscience, neuroscience and supercomputing as part of a multi-year cognitive computing initiative. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has awarded approximately US$21 million in new funding for phase 2 of the SyNAPSE project. For this project, a world-class, multi-dimensional team has been assembled, consisting of IBM researchers and collaborators from Columbia University; Cornell University; University of California, Merced; and University of Wisconsin-Madison.

    Source: http://www.ibm.com/smarterplanet/us/...computing.html
    This month (February 2013) marks the scheduled completion of phase two. IBM is currently transitioning into phase three.



    Phase four is scheduled to commence 18 months from now. This is only one line of research. Progress is being made elsewhere too.

    Various technologies and sciences will:
    • Integrate -- This is where they begin to protrude and branch into one another.

    • Assimilate -- This is where they begin to absorb and collect information from the branches of integration they have projected.

    • Dilate -- This is when they widen their sphere of influence by integrating and assimilating with other sciences and technologies.
    All three of these proposed phases feed into one another synergistically -- actualizing their overall potential. Their capacity continues to increase in this manner. This is how the threshold is approached.

    It's already apparent, just look around. Following the trends, it will become much more apparent over the next three to five years.



    Let's not forget to add - Information Technology - to the above Venn diagram.

    Step back and look at the bigger picture that all of these different projects are painting.

    There are plenty more "projects" as evidenced throughout this thread.

    This is only scratching the surface ... the tip of the iceberg as it were.

    Kind of playing devil's advocate here, but in light of the following...

    1. 7 billion+ global population
    2. Diminishing natural resources
    3. Negative evolutionary repercussions from technology and medicine

    ...it will be a very simple task to gain public favor for trans-humanism. I think one could even argue that this is what we were always meant to do; the pinnacle toward which our evolutionary path has been gradually leading. Unless they are shown the reality of foreign installation in an understandable and undeniable fashion, then it would seem that technological advancement is a natural function of humanity.

    Not that I would try to convince anyone to that effect, I can foresee a number of real issues that this movement would directly address. And when you're dealing with the masters of propaganda and deception, you know they're going to bring one hell of a PR campaign to bear, when the time comes.
