our overlords of the Bilderberg Group are very disturbed that we should want to hide things from them:(
They may or may not have used it, but their lackeys seem to be very disturbed that they cannot protect their lords like they could 'back in the day'. how are they supposed to know when their masters lives are threatened? Terrible shame

The movies are not good, and has not aged all that well, but it has spawned some epic stories from third parties
