If nothing in terms of technology separates them, no need to
invent something artificial that pretends to do that, if
that's what happens.

If an alien race of super-hackers conquered Earth, beings
that were totally ignorant about humans but could immediately
and fully understand any piece of code they were looking at
... would they see the same thing two times, or different
things one time each?

Interestingly we, who are still humans most of us, should use
the same method ...
