> modifications or misuse by an operator could nevertheless turn the ADS into a more damaging weapon which could potentially violate international conventions on warfare
Safe? When manned by actors known to shoot journalists in the head with “less lethal” weapons?
> they just need to find a local young person that is willing to help them handle the requirements online
Is that an officially published guidance? Because it sounds awfully close to “social security/ballot harvesting” and will surely backfire on those old people.
Another sus thing about this Password app is what “App Privacy Report” shows.
Sometimes it would increment counters for visited sites without you using the app, which likely means that sites are able to track you if you have an entry in Passwords.
Alternatively, some sites do not show up in logs even though icon shows up for a site/password entry.
> tomorrow the President could proclaim that we are being invaded by, say, the Yakuza, and send any non-citizen Japanese person to a prison in El Salvador
Why would he do that? Manzanar is much closer and successfully tested even against citizens.
I’ve heard that interned Japanese-American did not like to bring the whole thing up afterwards, but it was clearly a mistake trying to memory hole that abomination.
This is high and mighty, but didn’t they fire security team a year or so ago (couldn’t afford pay for higher ups)? I like how everyone just memory-holed that part and moved on… why would you recommend that to anyone?
> concerns about US companies (especially in the last months) have led many to migrate to Signal
And then, footer at the bottom of signal.org says “Signal, a 501c3 nonprofit” which is clearly an American thing. Am I missing something here? Both look American from here.
That only works for things that have immediate impact, less so for things that take time to blow up. But then all people involved have moved on and you’re left plugging AI, I guess.
It will probably work for both sides, as the only people left are either ok with that or clueless, perfectly self selected.
