Should we deny killer-robots?

The fact is that we should not make rules, what are not followed and this fact is very dominating in the weapon limitation talkings. The robot weapons or "killer robots" are effective weapon systems, and the effective weapon systems are the thing, what means in the military world. If we want to deny the killer robots, we must remember things like prohibiting nuclear weapons. The name "killer robot" is provocative, but if we are thinking robot as a weapon, we must know that almost every weapon is made for killing people or destroy the goods and infrastructure. So the mission of combat robots makes them killer robots. 

In fresh memories are the contracts like prohibiting chemical weapons, and prohibiting the flame throwers and bullets which are chancing their form. Countries like the USA and the Soviet Union had more chemical weapons than any other country in the world, and all countries what are joined the Nuclear non-proliferation treaty owns nuclear weapons. So any military force would not abandon their most effective weapons. 

The flamethrowers are classified in non-humane weapons, and that means they were prohibited during WWII but in fact, those brutal weapons were used in all fronts by allied and axis troops, because of their psychological effect. So the contracts do not affect if they are not controlled, and superpowers would not allow smaller countries to check their weapon stockpiles. 

And the thing is that the robot weapons are making the conflicts easier to solve by using force is a sad thing. Every type of new technology is causing problems and the thing is that every type of new technology has been turned to a military system. The fact is that the tractor, what mission was to make work easier is the thing, that made it possible to create the tank(1), the moving bunker that was invincible until lightweight anti-tank weapons like a bazooka and hollow(HEAT) warheads were invented(2). 

"The first use of tanks on the battlefield was the use of British Mark I tanks at the Battle of Flers-Courcelette (part of the Battle of the Somme) on 15 September 1916, with mixed results. Many broke down, but nearly a third succeeded in breaking through" (Wikipedia, Tanks in World War I)). And that success of the British (3) tanks made other nations to create their versions of this effective weapon.

But later in the WWII Germans created the tactics, where tanks were used in the large groups, and the "tank cutters" brought Germans success during the first years of WWII. And that caused the development of the new and lightweight anti-tank weapons, as I have written earlier. 

Against those weapons is created the automatized machine guns, what mission is to detonate incoming missile in the safe distance(4).  And the development of tanks is the race between improved armor and improved warheads. In most modern tanks has been planned to use microwave transmitters for exploding the incoming missiles, which means that the advantage goes to high-power laser cannons. And then there will be invented something new. 

And the fact is that human-shaped robots, what is made for the rescue and other missions can change to the killer-robots by changing the programs. And that thing makes them extremely lethal machines. The fact is that the most brilliant brains are working in those projects, and the effectiveness is the only thing that matters in the world of the military.  The counter-arguments are crushed by telling people, that the only reason why robots are facing resistance is that they are taking jobs from the soldiers.

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...

Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.

 Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.  The modern Hounds of Baskerville ABW:s (Advanced biological weapons are the modern Hounds of Baskerville. The term ABV means the animal which is genetically engineered. And which is controlled by using some interactive electronic systems. There is a possibility to connect the action camera to dogs collars. And transmit commands to that animal by using electronic systems. Spoken words can use to the commands.  Or they can be a series of sounds that are stored in the sound files. When the operator activates a certain file that sound means a certain command to the animals. There is the possibility to automatize some commands by connecting the system to the image recognition tool. When the action camera sees something that is stored in the memory of the computer. That system sends the coded order to the animal.  Nanotechnology and genetic engineering are the most lethal combination in the world. The ABW:s (Advanced Biological ...

Facebook and dominance of the media.

The position of Facebook is dominating and that causes concern. Facebook is a well-known and commonly used service. And that thing causes that the information is starting to pile up in that service. That information contains data that we might want to hide. Facebook is a network-based service that can use for many purposes from marketing to intelligence.  Facebook was down and the thing cost about half a million dollars per hour to that service. That shutdown has shown how dominating that service has been growing. Facebook is a powerful tool. It can use to track the networks of people.  Artificial intelligence can show the network map of the people who are using that service. The data that travels between certain members of the network can show how often those people are contacting each other. There is a lot of criticism against Facebook but the fact is that everybody is using that thing.  The attitudes toward Facebook are conflicting. People are criticizing that service ...
