Time travel > Nebula Memory? SPOILER


I didn't get this. Under the rules of this time travel (and all others really) what is happening to a newer version of you would not affect the older version of you.

So how are the memories in the new Nebula ending up back in the old Nebula? What am I missing.

It did seem like BS but I gave the movie the benefit of the doubt because she is a cyborg. Her brain supposedly works like a network, so she picked up the other Nebula´s memories.

Apparently, there is an internet network that her brain connects to back in 2014, so the older version also connects to it and the sync up like 2 apple devices from iCloud.

But that means present Nebula would always be transmitting to past Nebula, right? Which mean Thanos would be prepared for whats going to happen.

I guess the best real-life analogy is the cloud. Thanos has Nebula tracked by some kind of computer that syncs with her memory bank, most likely to keep tabs on her and prevent betrayal. When future Nebula showed up, her memory bank synced with it as well, creating a second info stream that Thanos used to glean the Avengers' plans.
