I'd forgotten about that. At the time, I remember similar designs from the 19th Century being pretty common and never did figure out what the big deal was. HOWEVER...
If someone had told me that P&G - or any other mega-conglomo - had hired a witch or satanist to whip up some bottom-line black magic, I would not be surprised. I was told at least a decade ago by someone who has since become virtually invisible that there were Fortune 500 companies with executives who were letting that particular camel's nose in under the tent.
Found this on car cyber “accidents”:
Former U.S. National Coordinator for Security, Infrastructure Protection and Counterterrorism Richard A. Clarke, told the Huffington Post that the crash that killed reporter Hastings was “consistent with a car cyber attack.”
“It’s relatively easy to hack your way into the control system of a car, and to do such things as cause acceleration when the driver doesn’t want acceleration, to throw on the brakes when the driver doesn’t want the brakes on, to launch an air bag. You can do some really highly destructive things now, through hacking a car, and it’s not that hard,” Clarke said.
However, as Clarke noted, “the problem with [car cyber attacks] is you can’t prove it.”
Wikileaks noted that “as of October 2014, the CIA was also looking at infecting the vehicle control systems used by modern cars and trucks. The purpose of such control is not specified, but it would permit the CIA to engage in nearly undetectable assassinations.”
Gordon Duff, senior editor of Veterans Today, wrote in 2010 about what he termed the CIA’s “Boston Brakes” assassination technique.
In the article, Duff noted that the deaths of Chilcot Inquiry witness Richard Waddington, anti-Zionist Austrian politicians Jorg Haider and even Princess Diana all involved car crashes where the vehicle crashed into objects like concrete abutments but left no skid marks – not unlike the Hastings crash. If Hastings really was the victim of CIA vehicle hijacking, it seems unlikely that he was the agency’s first victim of its “undetectable” assassinations.
