Majestic-12 [bot]

[Luther Blissett]

Is this an actual, legitimate account? I just saw it in the listing of who's browsing the forum at this time. If not, that's one strange web crawler.

It's a U.K. based distributed search engine.

If the PTB really wanted to spy on us, they'd send along bots with harmless-seeming names like "Yahoo" or "Google."

Or maybe hire half a dozen halfwits to set up a gazillion sock-puppet accounts.

I was gonna start a thread on this last week when I saw the bot.

Sounds pretty cool but the choice of name "Majestic 12" has obvious para ties.

Cue the Hugh-bot

Hey, I know the owner. Really, really choice bloke. Very unlikely a spook, rather unlikely spook-connected, wholly unlikely a dark actor.

I'd been meaning to ask him about the choice name of his company, and now definitely will next time we cross paths, likely in October, and give this thread a punt then with the best summation of his response.

Wow that's a wild coincidence. Do you think your friend named his company after the project as a knowing counter-culture move? Similar to one of my favorite studios in the US - MK12?

Oh sure! We're supposed to believe that!?

Nice try, spook!

(just kidding. I think?)

Uh, Psynapz, he might not look quite the same as you remember from your last meeting, you know, since the "car accident" and all.
