Great analysis. What are your thoughts on preventing circumvention of sanctions, such as denying passage to Russias shadow fleet, or stronger controls on EU components that end up in Russian drones?

Some random defense contractor writes in to say "You should deliver a minimal prototype as fast as possible to get feedback and involve users at every stage of labor"

I sidste uge skrev Peter Hummelgaard i Altinget, at det er en falsk fortælling om #chatkontrol forslaget, at regeringen vil overvåge private beskeder. Kritikken var underlødig, og så videre i Hummelgaards værste stil.

Ganske bemærkelsesværdigt, når det nu står direkte i lovteksten, at alle […]

Radio4 har fået adgang til datakøbmands smagsprøve.

Jeg har hjulpet teamet bag historien med at bygge en søge- og visualiseringsmaskine, da datamængderne, selv i “smagsprøven” var for store til at analysere i simple værktøjer som Excel.

Alle bør læse Garrett Graffs indlæg om det amerikanske demokratis dødskurs i retning af fascisme. En central pointe er, at der sjældent findes én definerende begivenhed, som markerer skiftet. Det foregår ved en gradvis afvikling af frihedsrettigheder, og USA er nået fortvivlende langt i processen.

"The United States, just months before its 250th birthday as the world’s leading democracy, has tipped over the edge into authoritarianism and fascism. In the end, faster than I imagined possible, it did happen here."

I've seen people say things like "our troops weren't designed to be used on US!!!" and look, I totally understand, I agree in some ways, but I really, really hope that if you feel that way you spend time thinking about the fact that there's no such thing as a weapon that can't be pointed at you.

God pointe. Og selv hvis planen er at deaktivere tags hvis der bliver krig, er det en mærkelig beslutning.

Jeg har programmeret RFID læsere. Uden at være ekspert synes jeg, dette lyder som en dårlig idé. Jeg ved ikke hvad de har baseret deres risikovurdering på, men hvis det er læseafstanden, så afhænger den både af typen af tags og hvordan de vender, men ikke mindst af scannerens effekt og antenner

I agree EU will not start out aggressive. But in the long run Europes stance will depend on its capabilities not on any principles. It is a problem we will have to deal with later.
