#TinfoilTuesday – Insect Drones, UFOs, and Dead Cat Drones
June 19th, 2012
So we already know that the US military admits to doing research into very small, insect-sized drones that move, and look, and act like insects, but are in fact, remote-controlled surveillance drones. (Or, who knows? It wouldn’t be hard to weaponize them for assassination either [or, excuse me: presidentially-authorized, targeted killing of an enemy combatant for the purpose of securing the homeland]). The creepy thing is: technically these are not just robots, but cyborgs, the actual, living tissue of a functioning, biological insect, combined with computer chips, and cameras, and transmitters, and other telemetry. Little terminators all around us…
Even as far back as the Bush years, there were reported mass sightings, especially around New York City and Washington DC, of tiny insect-like drones that witnesses just knew weren’t completely natural by the way they looked and moved. New York college students at an antiwar rally in 2007 for instance, along with others, saw these strange– well, technically– these strange UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects) that the government claims it knows nothing about and says are just natural dragonflies. But if the government already admits to wanting them and actively doing research to get them, then what isn’t the government admitting? I mean, you can’t honestly believe that the government just admits everything. They always keep some secrets.
Then more recently, you’ve got suspicions about the Israelis using birds as “drones” of sorts by fitting their nostrils with surveillance apparatus, tagging them, releasing them into other countries (in this case, Turkey), tracking them, and gathering data from them. The idea then occurred to me, once they learn lessons and advance their technology by learning how to manipulate the nervous system of insects with electrical signals, what will stop them from learning how to do it with birds? Or anything? It’s not totally unfeasible. Earlier this month, when an “artist” turned a dead, taxidermied cat into a civilian, remote-controlled, aerial drone, I wondered how long off cyborg infantry drone units are after they finally figure out how to make dragonflies and moths move around by remote control (if they already haven’t).
Could you imagine an army of cyborg cats, remote-controlled from some bunker in Northern Virginia, just ripping their way through any enemy, any barrier, getting through small openings, and letting nothing stand between them and seriously ruining some third world family’s day? I bet Dick Cheney can 
And it makes his little cyborg heart flutter to think of all his little baby cyborgs out there wreaking havoc and destroying lives in the name of democracy. The military already uses dogs in combat. Wouldn’t be a huge step for them to “enhance” those with cybernetic and robotic “enhancements” to keep them safer and make them more effective (like weapons and transmitters that freaking control the puppy’s brain). Imagine how disorienting, horrifying, and demoralizing it would be for a random dog or cat to run up to a crowd and explode. Imagine how effective an army of cyborg infantry drones might be.
Imagine it, because bad people have already. Imagine it and vocally cry out for an end to the militarization and weaponization of drone and cyborg technology.
And somebody get PETA on this.
