Alot of patents and inventions get bought and "Vaulted" by the government or Corporations if it would mean they lose profit. Great ideas forever hidden, just so some fat cat doesn't lose revenue or gain competition.

Or you come across stories of different people making/about to publish the same breakthroughs and somehow they always end up suddenly dying and their work is, of course, not available for anyone to see. Government straight up going into their houses to take any papers and shit but "oh, they didn't actually make a breakthrough...but it's sensitive, potentially dangerous stuff in there if it was in the wrong hands...trust me bro"

I think the last subject I recall with this happening was anti gravity tech? A way for limitless energy? The most recent being a team of scientists and I believe the Asian female (lead scientist?) went to a "business dinner" to celebrate/get paperwork stuff done and she dies after eating with them, stumbling out/still on the premises? (Been a while, details are hazy)

It's crazy because people really will obviously see that's some foul play type shit, get outraged, and it always just...kinda goes away.

Come to think of it, didn't they confiscate Nikola Teslas shit? They swooped in at the speed of immediately. How crazy would that make his living friends/family? I feel like I'd lose my mind and die trying to keep it from happening.

It's cause the masses are dumb herdable animals that follow blindly and people who speak out either get silenced or made to look crazy. Either way "they" win.
