Dr James Giordano is one of the world’s leading experts in all things electromedicine, nanomedicine and Smartdust.

There’s something in the air, because on Wednesday, Dr Giordano posted the statement, below to his LinkedIn account, raising the alarm about the Next-Generation Nonsurgical Neurotechnology (N3) that he helped to develop, as a consulting ethicist, which he describes, here as “medical” in its “intent” and its “obvious” potential for weaponization for “mind-reading” and “mind control” and the need for “biocybersecurity-by-design”.

He notes that other nations, possessing different values and objectives from our own may have zero compunction about weaponizing these technologies and he says, “Pandora’s jar has been opened”.

He makes no mention of the Department of Defense’s “vaccine”, presumably because he has a Security Clearance and he would like to keep it.

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)’s Next-Generation Nonsurgical Neurotechnology (N3) project is an ambitious initiative aiming to develop vast array of nanoscalar sensing and transmitting brain-computational interfaces (BCIs). An axiomatic attribute of such a system is obviating the burden and risks of neurosurgical implantation by instead introducing the nanomaterials via intranasally, intravenously and/or intraorally, and using electromagnetic fields to migrate the units to their distribution within the brain. It’s said that location is everything, and so too here. Arrays would require precise placement in order to engage specific nodes and networks, and it’s unknown if -and to what extent any “drift” might incur in system fidelity.

The system works much like WiFi in that it’s all about parsing signal from the “noise floor” of the brain; but “can you hear me now?” takes on deeper implications when the sensing and transmitting dynamics involve “reading from” and “writing into” brain processes of cognition, emotions and behavior. I’d be the first one to argue for an “always faithful” paradigm of sensing and transmitting integrity; yet, even if the system and its workings are true to design, there’s still a possibility of components (and functions) being “hacked”. As work with Dr Diane DiEuliis has advocated, the need for “biocybersecurity-by-design” is paramount (not just for N3, but for all neurotech, given its essential reliance upon data).

By intent, N3 holds promise in medicine; but the tech is also provocative for communications (of all sorts), and its dual-use is obvious. Yes, Pandora, this jar’s been opened. If we consider the sum-totaled operations of the embodied brain to be “mind”, and N3-type tech is aimed at remotely sensing and modulating these operations, then it doesn’t require much of a stretch to recognize that this is fundamentally “mind reading” and “mind control”, at least at a basic level. And that’s contentious. In full transparency, I served as a consulting ethicist on initial stages of N3, and the issues spawned by this project were evident, and deeply discussed. But discussion is not resolution, and the “goods” as well as the gremlins and goblins of N3 tech have been loosed into the real world. The real world is multinational, and DARPA – and the US – are not alone in pursuing these projects. Nations’ and peoples’ values, needs, desires, economics, allegiances, and ethics differ, and any genuine ethical discourses – and policy governances – must account for that. The need for a reality check is now; the question is whether there is enough rational capital in regulatory institutions’ accounts to cash the check without bouncing bankable benefits into the realms of burdens, risks and harms.

  • “Ideal ElectroMagnetic Environments”

    What most Bio-ElectroMagnetic Medicine theorists are missing
    is the fact that a simple DC non-pulsing background magnetic field
    with the proper strength (1 – 2.5 gauss), polarization and uniformity,
    is all that is needed.
    The earth provides a uniform field with a deviation of less than 1 part in 5,000.
    Of course avoidance of 50 Hz & 60 Hz cadences,
    and shielding of MW communication frequencies is essential.
    These “Ideal ElectroMagnetic Environments” are most important for sleep
    to promote the best & most complete mitosis (healing)
    which promotes the best body/physical performance.
    EM Medicine pioneers cringe at the site of all the goofy “MedBeds”
    that don’t account for these basics.

  • Hacked or not, without pretending to know what all the acronyms mean, my understanding is that the “thing” is out there and my body is being tampered with without having being asked if I agree with that.

    So, the guy is not even saying all that is wrong; instead he seems to say that some entity needs to set up rules for the casino to run smoothly. Nice, brave new world! A very welcoming place for newborns! A world without God we wanted, a place without world we get. Because, without the free will received from God, what are we being reduced to?
    When He saw people were so enslaved by earthly interests and with no aspiration to Heaven, God decided to end with humanity with the exception of Noah and his close family. Do you believe it will be much different this time? The only difference is that the instrument of destruction will be fire instead of water. It is not me saying that. It is the fathers of the Church saying it. Again and again. So, prepare. Pray and prepare.

    • Jon, like you i don’t understand the mechanics of this, but I do understand why I could not sleep in the house in which I used to live. No medication resolved this. I partly resolved it by cuff grounding myself to the steel bed frame and cabled it to and 8 foot grounding rod outside the house. It seemed to help a lot, but it wasn’t completely successful. Trouble was with two electric meters outside my bedroom window. Mine and my neighbors were beaming out readings every few seconds. Sleeping in the rockies is best for me because its away from all the meters. I understand that much experientially. I also understand philosophically how the nation of my birth was captured by the foreign corporation state owned and operated by the “club”. Not a boast, I know who they are, but it is forbidden to discuss it in public.

      • Funding for national wifi for complete coverage will then be able to manipulate all and move /control population . I guess this will be deemed misinformation until everyone is happy? Who can you trust anymore!

    • Jon-

      yes, at least this time around we have Jesus- the Ark of these days !

      thank you for the call- i pray others will heed it !!!
