Technology is a means to an end, not the end itself. If you can’t make it safe then don’t deploy it.

There must be some level of acceptable failure.

  • Flock, like Palantir, is the Torment Nexus from the famous novel Don’t Create The Torment Nexus.

    Considering the potential and demonstrated abuse there must be more robust guardrails than currently exist. The required level of safety is more like “nuclear launch codes” or “commercial airliner”, not “local used car lot landing page”.

    This juice ain’t worth the squeeze.
