why should MKUltra researchers and activist stay alert about what happens in the mobile phone industry? because: THEY KNOW... "Vodafone has gotten a lot of loud negative feedback for an advertising campaign it ran in Germany. The “Generation Upload” campaign was aimed at heavy Internet users, and made use of bloggers and Web celebrities that it felt would appeal to them. However, the mobile operator has run foul of a phenomenon called the “Uncanny Valley” - a term used to describe the horrified reactions of humans to things that are almost human, but not quite. Like Zombies." http://www.gomonews.com/vodafone-falls-victim-of-uncanny-valley-in-mobile-advertising/
