The phenomenon of conspiracy theories brings together different elements. First, we need to have a relatively plausible story that, while fantastic, seems entirely believable. Also, it must contain elements of political or similar conspiracies, and aliens. We’re going to go over some of the craziest and funniest.
We have computers thanks to the Roswell UFO
Perhaps the case of the most famous UFO phenomenon in history and of which little is known. There are hundreds of documentaries and re-enactments of what happened. Theoretically, the July 2, 1947 one is injured UFO In the town of Roswell, New Mexico, USA. A quiet town that overnight (pun intended) became famous.
Supposedly, an alien ship crashed there and was hidden by the government WE. Everything was taken over by the American army and taken to Area 51, a “secret” facility located near the city of Las Vegas, Nevada. There the ship was analyzed, reverse engineering and from there I know They developed the first computers.
Of course, this is a theory based on an alleged alien spacecraft crash. The Roswell affair is famous for the way the subject was handled and the doubts it aroused.
Intel integrates a spy chip in its processors
This is another one of the crazy stories that “experts” in mysteries and conspiracies have released on YouTube. There is no proof of this, but they assure that its Intel processors hide a spy chip. Something that is always disassembled with the lithographic analysis of processors, where we know what each of the parts does.
Supposedly, this chip is imposed by of the CIA for the surveillance of all the teams in the world. A colossal task that would require an unimaginable amount of personnel and computing power. Or, there should be very specific algorithms that look for specific items, separating the wheat from the chaff.
At least, a mental straw from some who look for conspiracies under the stones.
Bitcoin created by the CIA or aliens
The first decentralized cryptocurrency created is the source of many conspiracy theories. He The creator of Bitcoin is Satoshi Nakamotowhich is the pseudonym of a person or a group of people. No one knows his true identity Well, it has not been confirmed till now.
Several YouTube channels have used this factor to create their own theories. Two theories are put forward in this case. First of all Bitcoin is a creation of the CIA American as some sort of economic experiment or something. It is also assumed that the The Bitcoin code is of extraterrestrial origin and it was sent via a message, come on, someone in the US got an email with the message “We made bitcoin for you” or something like that.
5G and COVID vaccines
One of the craziest theories of recent years concerns the 5G and COVID. Conspiracy fans added 2+2 and said that equals 33, no more. They agreed that the 5G network rollout is not a coincidence with the outbreak of COVID-19, but they have a clear relationship.
He points out that the COVID-19 it’s a laboratory virus and the vaccines created are designed to manipulate us. they say you are Vaccines carry microscopic robots and traces of graphene that serve to mutate us and they can manipulate. They indicate that those who get vaccinated, via 5G, are manipulated by influential socio-political elites.
Of course, as if it needed anything other than a smartphone and social media.
Death of John McAfee
Another of the events that has given rise to quite surreal theories is the death of the creator of one of the main antiviruses. McAfee dies in Barcelona, in prisonto wait for to be extradited In the USA. There he had to face several trials where he was claimed between 30 years and life imprisonment, which would have led him to commit suicide.
His last years were not at all exempt from rather serious events. Apparently, I fled Belizewhere he was accused of having paid police officers to protect him and of having apparently killed a neighbor. He was arrested in United States for driving while intoxicated and drugged. I am trying to run for President of the United States without success. Also, I assure you he would cut off his penis and eat it if Bitcoin by the end of 2021 wasn’t worth $1 million for every 1 BTC.
Of course, his life gives rise to many documentaries, beyond the one on Netflix where they detail what happened in Belize.
Facebook, the modern MK Ultra
We also have a special conspiracy party with the social network Facebook, officially created by the CIA, apparently. Supposedly, it is a platform created to psychologically influence people. This is based on the venture capital fund In-Q-Tel, which would have been created in 1999 by the CIA.
The truth is that In-Q-Tel works with over 100 different companies, including Google. They invested at the time in Keyhole, the company that designed Google Earth. We assume that this investment fund was the economic engine of Facebook, but there is no evidence. The investment fund does not mention anywhere that it has invested in this social network.
This theory is very similar to the MK Ultra program in the United States where, between the 1950s and 1970s, they manipulated people without consent.
And you, do you know of other surreal conspiracy theories around computers and new technologies?
