Comment Oh dear, aren't these our 'alien tech' friends? (Score 3) 212

Before reading the article (and even halfway down it), I was almost gulled into thinking 'cool'
except that the claims were a bit too good to be true.
As soon as the article stated mumbling about terahertz speeds (now isn't any electromagnetic wave at frequency somewhere in the
far infrared range?) and the origins of the complex designs for this technology being totally
unknown(roswell! roswell!)- I remembered seeing these guys (American Computers) put up similarly preposterous claims previously.

What I can't work out is:
a) does American Computer want to be taken seriously on this?
b) is it some sort of (very silly) con or scam.
c) some sort of method of getting extra site hits from gullible people (hey I visited the site...).
d) Some sort of gag/humor site/parody. It did kind of make me smile. If it's a gag, they've certainly made it very deadpan.
e) do these people really have this product (tinfoil hat time methinks)

All I know about this site is that it's been around for a while and that they've made similar claims before. I just forgot about them.

At least the blurb warned us that the information might be rather unreliable....
