Based on all the contradictory messages I've been seeing from the same portals (pursue conflict advance war, vs. strong together avoid war), I have to assume this is indeed Carrie Campbell's proposed double-blind study. This leads me to wonder what, exactly, is being tested.
I've gotten things like "avoid XM message lie" and "shapers chaos pure harm" from a long-standing Enlightened P7 on multiple occasions, along with pro-Enlightenment messages so thick with propaganda that no one would believe the sender genuinely meant it. I have likewise gotten several strongly pro-Shaper messages from Resistance portals, and messages that had nothing to do with the Shapers directly but were very similar in theme to the the Jarvis messages.
I propose that one of the following scenarios is likely to be true: The scanner intentionally displays a different message then what the portal is broadcasting approximately 50% of the time, perhaps to test our reactions and check against placebo effect, OR both factions' portals actually resonate with such a chaotic assortment of messages is that there is no functional difference between the alignments after all.
