#To Minimize Public Knowledge of the Cult

But I do not think my life will be long. As my uncle went, as poor Johansen went, so I shall go. I know too much, and the cult still lives. --Call of Cthulu, H.P. Lovecraft

The Cthulu Cult cares very much that its operations remain undiscovered. So much so that they killed Johansen, a man that many would have simply dismissed as crazy. In the 1920's, their loose cult of sailors, servants, and slaves was able to track down and discretely eliminate people who knew too much around the world.

It follows that in a modern day setting, with a huge population increase, they'd need to be far more organized, with databases full of people they're keeping an eye on, Eldritch AI analyzing social media posts to sift the crazy conspiracy theorists from those who have actually stumbled upon the Truth, Artifact Management to secure and eliminate evidence of otherworldly bas reliefs and/or statuettes, Incident Management, Human Resources, Livestock Procurement, and so on.
