Information Poisoning is a catch all description for the cognitive impairment resulting from Information Operations. Information Operations, aka IO, psyops, are the methods and tactics employed in non-linear war, in theory only against “enemy” populations and then only in wartime. The Smith-Mundt Act became law in 1948, and explicitly forbids information and psychological operations aimed at influencing U.S. public opinion. The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) of 2012 included an amendment that legalized the use of propaganda on the American public.
The Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2012, which was contained within the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (section 1078 (a)) amended the United States Information and Educational Exchange Act of 1948 and the Foreign Relations Authorization Act of 1987, allowing for materials produced by the State Department and the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) to be available within the United States.
The U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM), formerly the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG),[1] is an independent agency of the United States government which operates various state-run media outlets.[2] According to its website, its mission is to "inform, engage, and connect people around the world in support of freedom and democracy."[3] USAGM supervises Voice of America (VOA), Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, Radio y Televisión Martí, Radio Free Asia, and the Middle East Broadcasting Networks.[4]
The presumed independence and competitive operation of entertainment and communications industry is illusory. The legacy “mockingbird” media may be considered as a single organism functionally integrated with the advertising industry. The use of subliminal programing targeting the viewers unconscious below the level of awareness is common to advertising, entertainment and news content.
TIME magazine famously published a Gaddaffi cover in the 80s which contained multiple embeds. Since that era the use of by legacy media outlets of programs targeting the viewers unconscious has increased, subliminal embeds, hypnotic induction, memory holing gas lighting, the power of Information war tactics as well as the depth of their reach has been enormously enhanced by the advent of new technology.
If the same pedovore cultist forces continue their control of US media, and VR and AR or Mixed Reality technologies are widely adopted the operators control of human consciousness and course of future development will be absolute. The late Lance Williams, a computer vision pioneer foresaw the danger in 2013, noting a trivial exploit in VR using binocular rivalry to introduce information that is retained acted upon and has been shown to influence future behavior.
