The best part is the faked legal threat.  I do not know a single lawyer who would refer to "The Illegal Device" or "The Illegal Program."  The term would be "Infringing" since there is no decisive illegality until adjudication.

Oh, and the "fail to cave to our demands," or such tripe.  Also, was pneumatic tube still in use in Gig Harbor, WA in 2000?

I, sir, am from a non-evil mind-control agency.  But were I evil, could I distribute altered copies?

From the FAQ, asking about detecting signals from the 1990s:
Quote
You may be experiencing psychotronic echoes caused when mind-control signals produce sympathetic vibrations in nearby aluminum ore deposits. These vibrations can linger in the deposits for years, reemitting the same old signals over and over. If you have ever visited a town where it seems everyone's fashion is stuck in some past decade, this is usually the explanation.


And the last bit before I just cannot read anymore:
Quote
I have created a small script that proves that MindGuard is a sham!

That's not a question.

Clearly you are in league with the forces of mind control and are trying to scare people away from a product that can protect them.


And it calls "They Live!" a docu-drama.  :rofl:  I am dying here!  I am seriously wondering if something is not hidden in the carrier modules or the program itself.

Oh, this stuff is just brilliant.  Perfect spoof of classic brainwashing and mind control techniques and arguments.

"Your proof of my lunacy is tainted by the very fact that I have identified you as an agent against me.  QED."  (Paraphrased, and I wish I could remember where I heard that.)  I must visit this page again and absorb more.


Ok, yeah, I spent a good bit of time on this.  But that is what I tend to do.  Besides, this really is funny... er, I mean serious... stuff.  I wonder if this could be wrenched into the SubGenius.  Praise Bob!

Something slightly worrying is that the "before and after MindGuard" brain scan is referenced to "Kelvinic University School of Neuroscience", and that "university" is hosted on their own domain :inquisitive:

Fairly common.  You can see this happen in various weight loss regimen scams, and especially the ionized bracelet scam in which the results of institutes of study touting the bracelet's efficacy were research "institutes" owned by the manufacturer.

Heck.  I could found an institute, do a study on a here-to-unknown product, and then begin manufacturing said "product."  That is the case with the stick-on cell phone signal amplifiers.

You know, like Dell's "award winning customer service."  Yeah, I can print those awards in Print Shop, too.  For that matter, I am an award-winning Hooters trivia contestant.  A colleague printed it for me when I won Star Trek Trivia Night (really, the questions were painfully easy.)

R.I.P. Ricardo Montalbán.  KAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHNNNNNNNNN!!

What kind of pooch?  My exgf has a pit bull that looks just like that muzzle-on.  Friendliest dog I have ever known (big bloody baby!)

Then I was right: shear brilliance.  It does tie up several paranoia paradigms very well.  A fun place.
