CARET drones by Alienware?
Of course! It’s so obvious! The CARET drone saga was a viral marketing campaign for Alienware computers.
We didn’t see the connection, however, until Alienware premiered its new Area-51 laptops with the company’s name embossed on the lid (pictured above) using the alien hieroglyph language from the CARET documents .
When you think about it, who’d have a better reason to invent an alien hieroglyphic language that was also “a pencil drawn computer that works by being in the presence of a certain type of field” than a company that makes computers called Alienware? Duh?
Alienware isn’t exactly owning up to the drone/CARET marketing scheme; according to an email posted over at Lucianarcy, the company simply caught the CARET virus themselves:
“Hi ________,
Thank you for your email. It’s great to hear that our promotion has reach out to you and your Forum group regarding the CARET document. Alienware did NOT create the information regarding this phenomena or the CARAT linguistics. This is NOT an intellectual property of Alienware. The information has anonymously spread throughout the web for some time. We have taken the CARAT linguistics and have applied this as a marketing tool to draw attention to our promotion.
Regards,
Director of PR Communications
Alienware Corporation”
Despite their protests of innocence, it’s impossible to imagine that Alienware doesn’t have full legal rights to the “intellectual property” used to create their company’s logo and like a politician accepting an ad paid for by his supporters, by using the CARET “linguistics” they’re tacitly giving their stamp of approval to the whole drone deal.
So, maybe it really was created by aliens since that’s about the only explanation that it seems likely will satisfy George Noory of Coast to Coast or Linda Moulton Howe of Earthfiles, both of whom were contacted directly by “drone witnesses” and/or “Isaac,” the scientist who was supposedly involved in reverse engineering the “alien” technology.
Noory and Howe continued to report the material as fact, never acknowledging that many others suspected a hoax. So now we’re forced to conclude that either they were part of the “game,” completely taken in by it or there really are reverse-engineered drones.
The Area-51 laptops are wicked cool, so I for one am hoping that neither Alienware nor their marketing firm invested their considerable corporate resources into creating false names and providing false information to use Howe and Noory as their unwitting sales tools. That would not be cool, just wicked.
If you’re feeling a little bit duped by the drone debacle, you can try to get a bit of your dignity back by entering Alienware’s contest to decipher the alien message. Unfortunately, first prize not an awesome laptop, it’s a trip to New York. I guess they figure if you can translate the lingo, all you need is paper and pencil to make your very own alien-ware computer.
