"Project MKUltra (or MK-Ultra)[a] was the code name of an illegal human experimentation program designed and undertaken by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).[1][2][3] The experiments were intended to develop procedures and identify drugs such as LSD that could be used in interrogations to weaken individuals and force confessions through brainwashing and psychological torture." - this implies that MKULTRA was solely a human experimentation program run by the CIA, and does not cover the large amount of research projects not conducted by the CIA but funded by them under the umbrella of MKULTRA.
"activities carried out under the guise of research" - first off, MKULTRA was by definition a research project. Second, many experiments they funded were entirely legitimate and conducted entirely by non-CIA personnel (as well as some deeply unethical experiments that were not the CIA's idea and were not conducted by them). --Eldomtom2 (talk) 13:55, 15 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
