2003 i first read about global trafficking in shipping containers, on ships, for the elite. might have been rumor mill news, might have been orlin j. grabbe. mentioned the pre-drugged water bottles and the "ripe but not spoiled" survival rate. part of traumatizing the humans was that 1/3 were dead on arrival. author said that one of the big 3 auto makers was in on it and make special transport vans easy to hose out and soundproof. i have it offline somewhere, older IDE drive. have to build a vintage machine to find it.
iirc the article said most of the trafficking was from china. some passengers paid for passage, some thought they had a job waiting in america. they had no idea they would be drugged and stripped naked and thrown in a shipping container. if they survived the journey, were used as slaves, sexual or otherwise. it took coordination with the ship captains, the port authorities, maybe even the crane operators – a large enough biz conzern to have its own private pier and a way to avid customs.
bottled water, pre-drugged bottled water, from the last bread, is why i mention this. it was in the article from 2003. the humans being trafficked inside the shipping container were supplied bottled water that was pre-drugged with something like rophynol, to keep them docile and oblivious the whole trip and easy to handle at the destination.
g00g was filling containers with 1024 rack mounted servers for a while, for easy shipping and staging. their barge with containers was something else, eventually scrapped. i agree, creepy. we know about ES and his penthouse palace. the original article i'm talking about was single containers of humans amidst containers of regular cargo.
