The World Governing Body In Homer's Odyssey

As if reading her mind, Somerled assured her, “You did everything possible to warn them. After all, there are overwhelming, unstoppable forces on Earth driven by an insatiable greed for money and power, which can turn any truth into a lie. Both of you had no voice on Earth, and neither do we. Even if we send a letter with Captain Spero and Chief Steward Pars, it takes a month for the Odyssey to reach Earth. I fear that it could be too late by then for the majority of the population. Earth neither values Gnaritus nor sees us as equals, so I have no confidence in them taking the letter seriously. Then again, we must believe in the remote possibility of the World Governing Body acting on our message and saving at least a part of the population
“Strange, we were the lucky ones, who got away just in the nick of time. I wish this guy Stinguard would come to his proper senses! He sounds like a twisted man. Other than seeing Gnaritus as a dumping ground for human detritus, the World Governing Body severed all ties with us! Who could even imagine how warped their thinking is? While the Gnaritusonians are aspiring for cosmic consciousness and the developmental singularity, the World Governing Body on Earth is aiming for the gutter. How can anything good happen when their only goal is to make even more money and sweep aside anyone standing in their way? At least we are safe on Gnaritus!”

So far, I have found layers of filters that seem to evolve and become even more resistant each time I attempt to bypass them. They designed this diabolical firewall with malicious intent. However, when I worked for the Rochester Manninghouse Corporation, I found these same filters censoring and monitoring communication on Earth as well. During my meeting earlier today with the five council members, they told me of the many computer engineers, who attempted to disable these filters without success. Somerled Knightly bluntly said there is no one I can enlist for help because none of the computer engineers here are interested in this anymore. The general feeling is that since Earth wants nothing to do with Gnaritus, why bother trying to open the communication channels. All in all, bringing down this firewall will take a long time for me to figure out.”
“I know you’re trying your best Alfonso,” Surina said quietly. “We are counting on you. It’s unfair to say that you may well be the Earth’s last hope as well. So don’t feel too pressured. Instead, Earth’s fate lies in its hands
