In case you’ve not noticed it information from UA is tightly controlled. In fact just recently a US military person commented that they have might tighter ‘operational security’ than the Russians which they use to their advantage. We in the US learned from the Vietnam war that its not a good idea to give journalists free access to the conflict, we need to tightly control and curate any information being given out for security and also to curate public opinion, hence the use of embedded journalists. The result is often disinformation, the impression planted in the public mind of the country and the conflict often bears little resemblance to the actual place and events. It would be naive to think that the same thing isn’t happening in Ukraine, especially as we don’t actually see very much hard information (and all too often the same recycled photographs). …. martinusher
Precisely, martinusher, quite so.
Therefore, then logically and beyond any question of reasonable doubt, nothing is as it would popularly seem, and the realities one presumes oneself to be living in are remotely, relatively anonymously constructed, media delivered, fake existences ……. and it is not absolutely necessary for such exercises and perceptions management programs and projects to be in extremis and in exclusive elite executive command and control to be almightily effective and attractive and addictive at one one end of the NEUKlearer HyperRadioProACTive IT spectrum or mightily disruptive and destructively chaotic and depressive at the other end ‽ .
And …. to not realise nor accept that as a matter of true and honest universal fact has one condemning oneself to be energised as nothing more powerful or important than an expendable pawn to be considered for roadkill to that and/or those who do realise and accept and would continually script it with stealthy instruction sets for puppeteers to follow and render their thoughts shared in relatively secure and safe secret spaces today as proxy actions and decisions for resulting planned future outcomes tomorrow ….. with that modus operandi/vivendi cycle exercised every day, time and time again, in excelsis and to XSSXXXX.

I can see the fake news info war has made its way to this sleepy Internet backwater as well. Helpfully marked with distinctive handles to aid identification though. ….. Anonymous Coward
El Reg, a sleepy Internet backwater ????? Now there’s a novelty only the seriously misinformed and severely undereducated would proffer.
And that also identifies you as one of the new intakes of Anonymous Coward, AC.
Take care the revolving resolving doors inside this sleepy Internet backwater don’t hit you whilst travelling through and knock you out and for six and head over heels on your way out of its myriad doozy stealthy compartmentalisations.
When Russia invades a country, it is an “illegal” invasion? But when the United States makes a hobby of invading countries, toppling governments it determines are too free and democratic it somehow is given a pass? Hypocrisy is looming big in the Ukraine, as the U.S. is again backing Right-wing fanatics. Only this time using someone else troops. … ITS Retired
Should I now assume you feel that if the USA has made bad things Putin is fully free to do so too. ….. Lars
Lars, Hi,
Neglecting to answer those few initial obviously very uncomfortable and unpalatable questions from ITS Retired, and instead preferring to introduce a distracting red herring and straw man, does not help disguise the rank hypocrisy of inept Great and Greater IntelAIgent Game players on open politically incorrect display today in these days of some extremely strange and surreal and weird and wonderful and wired and wild happenings.
And as it is next to impossibly hard to dodge a speeding bullet whenever one is worthily correctly targeted for deadly impact, it doesn’t need one to be an Einstein to suspect one knows what is bound to happen next to such worthily correctly aimed at targets in ACTive near-future real-time places and spaces.
Re: Can we hold our own ‽ Is there any type of Red Weather Warning?
Whenever the real money-shot question is more about about defending or attacking arrogant entrenched institutional and constitutional incompetence, which has everything to do with inspiring and maintaining a vital air of foreign market confidence, ….. and currently you might like to ponder on the present UKGBNI choice for courses of action with regard to what its representative government bodies/civil service agencies and supposedly democratically elected Parliamentarians are mired in, and failing so spectacularly to resolve satisfactorily to the mutually beneficial greater benefit of all …… that one simple wrong choice has always anyone’s oven ready solution cremated to a frazzle and rendered as nothing more useful or substantial than a light dusting of pixie dust, and by all manner of wonderfully novel ESPecial and indefensibly extreme EMPathetic means and memes nowadays, with all of these exotic and erotic places and spaces with 0days and vulnerabilities to impart and exploit, export/import to and fro their fail-safe secured harbours and launch sites within.
And because it would be grossly and criminally unfair to not express the correct answer to the question of whether we can hold our own in defence of the former against any of the latter, be hereby advised and assured, categorically and unambiguously, …. No, you cannot. It is not possible. Do not venture down that root route of self-harming perils delivering total annihilation exercising displays of ignominious defeat and abject terror and horror.
And now that that dire type of Red Weather Warning has been surely very clearly Registered for global sharing, can all be assured of what to expect and be prepared for, and who and/or what is to be found fully responsible and accountable and prosecutable for any and all subsequent losses/trials and tribulations/dodgy trails and mass capitulations, …. or otherwise as the case can be, ….. because of their thoughts and proposals for a course of future realised action and virtual engagement.

Re: All news, and what to bear in mind during its attractions and seductions.
The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, and our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of…. It is they who pull the wires that control the public mind. …. Edward Bernays’s “Propaganda” [1928]
And there has been almost a century to further refine and master, and now digitally remaster, that deep and dark art ……. and most folk haven’t a clue about any of it and what it has done and can do, and even less about how it is stealthily done to avoid its prevention and would now be doing with immunity and impunity in ACTive and alienating fields of invisible forces and intangible sources in competition with and/or opposition to each other …… although that also is something which has been long enough well enough known in certain majestic royal and ancient and postmodern circles …..
“There are powers at work in this country about which we have no knowledge.”
Quite whether that very particular and peculiar royal intelligence deficit persists to exist and insist on being a current presence for future generation in future generations is a leading question rightly most uncomfortable with an honest answering, for all the very best of right and proper great reasons.
Some uncomfortable facts there to be waged as errant nonsensical fiction, Jellied Eel, in an effort to create an untenable virtual reality distortion field ? Have an upvote for its generous sharing.
Yes, and a remote godsend for both the serious moron and easily led idiot alike, in all of their very strange guises ……. https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/soros-thornton-hawke-new-book-details-how-beijing-manipulated-western-elites ….. for who in their right mind plans not to trade top secrets in order to render conflict unlikely with the search for extra special and sensitive information for intelligence clearly provided as simple common sense for global general knowledge?
Everything is but an opinion, and yours is just as valid. …. ThatOne
Just as valid maybe, ThatOne, however, ….. although nowadays it may very well not be as the vital past case was ….. to have it Main Stream Media realised required you to have privileged access to dodgy ponzi type friends or acquaintances with more than just a little excess to excuse and exercise itself in a big club and you ain’t in it
It is much more interesting and intellectually engaging to ponder on there being a vibrant rising challenge to present traditional orthodoxies rather than making/accepting erroneous assumptions that future battles are predictably indicatively lost whenever so much evidence abounds in the ether to the contrary.
A Positive AI Recursive Feed Back Loop is Not Something to Mess With.
“In order for police to understand the Metaverse, we need to experience it.”
That is as may certainly be, however it will always remain as a relatively small part of greater bigger pictured domains where and when, for one to lead future unfolding events with experience in an expansive understanding of them and the Metaverse, one needs to remotely access and be able to enable their virtual realisation for practical command and pragmatic control of metadata physicalised assets in support infrastructures/administering exoskeletons ….. with simply complex base requirements ……seeding almighty creative core source feeds and needs.
And, to neither imagine nor realise such is the natural comfortable realm of Secret IntelAIgent Services and Special Forces has one severely disadvantaged by them with one’s worlds stuck in the past with a present hoping for a change which status quo elements are unable to supply with leadership and would actively try to resist being revealed are nevertheless freely available provided by A.N.Others …… thus making such present home teams the spiteful enemy to be destroyed with conflicts beyond their ken and powers of executive command and elitist control.
Which sector[s] do you think would be prime premier ground-breaking and Earth-shattering pioneers in that very particular and admittedly surely quite peculiar discipline …… public, private, pirate, alien ….. with precious little chance and no great white hot hope of it being more likely an amalgam of such aspiring/inspiring/conspiring interests ‽
The only real question to answer is which sector realises their most profitable successful role is one of lead in a practically invisible and virtually anonymous and autonomous support of such pioneers/enterprises.
Crikey, how pathetic and prime indicative it is of an ignorant and bankrupt of novel ideas mindset, El Reg, to have garnered/energised so many anonymous thumbs down, for the sharing of something absolutely vital for political puppets to perform well with whilst they try to expound and expand upon the notion that any magic potions proposed to be trialed and trailed are of their own volition and Greater IntelAIgent Games design.
🙂 Goodness knows what HM King Charles III thought to say when Liz [“I have therefore spoken to His Majesty the King”] troubled/delighted him again with news of her resignation/abdication/unconditional surrender yesterday?
Oh, and another thing which you might like to think is going to be absolutely vital over these next few days is …… should there be no engagement with nor any anonymous source leaking to mainstream media channels of a radical and fundamental rethinking of the politically incorrect manipulation of human perception for global presentation, ….. will any current systems oven ready deals be subject to an onslaught of searing microwaves and be burnt to a crisp.
Seven days/A week is a long time in politics and quite long enough to engage with that fix which pulls the proverbial rabbit out of the hat and is able to prevent nothing less than titanic colossal catastrophes.

The private sector is collecting data, said Grienberger, and that’s worrying.
Such a worry pales into a relative insignificance whenever one understands and realises what can be easily done by a private and pirate sector generating sensitive and classified top secret type data for general collection/wide spread world distribution.
And whatever is one to think of “the United Kingdom who discussed building confidence and trust in cyberspace.” whenever it is so evident to all conservatives at home, and to foreign friends and radical enemies far away, that one cannot trust any word or promise their elected government representatives say.
Honourable members they say ……. but you know it aint true for it is well proven, time and time again to be otherwise, and a contemptible bare-faced lie well suited to a harbouring nest of minor vipers.

For those made of the right stuff, and with something attractive and unique to offer a troubled and troubling situation, is Hong Kong/China/the Special Administrative Region a rich vein of opportunity to provide with future services presenting novel programs and projects launching and entertaining prosperity and supplying profit to that and those in need of, or even simply desirous of a great deal more of it.
And an incredibly valuable immaculately resourceful asset for export/import to any similarly pioneering jurisdiction/territory.
An example of something attractive and unique to offer would certainly surely be the provision of future services presenting novel programs and projects launching and entertaining prosperity and supplying profit to that and those in need of, or even simply desirous of, a great deal more of it.

It is why Status Quo Systems’ Media Controlling Machines do not permit and provide for free viewer and captive listener input/output suggesting an alternative view with novel solutions for ancient problems/future radical changes to entrenched ignorant difficult positions/troubling persistent activities.
Heaven forbid that the world and his dog have a common leading voice to be heard and realised which doesn’t agree with that of just a catastrophically psychotic few appears to be their mantra and Casus Belli.
And if that is not changed as quick as a flash, as it can be nowadays with that which is available to that and those so enabled by machines controlled by loving fingertips, there be Immaculately Resourced Assets and Universal Virtual Force type Troubles ahead for such Status Quo Systems’ Machine Commanders and Controllers, for more of the same is no longer acceptable when enough is enough is not heeded and turns toxic and destructive.

As the West are copying China on the sly, this could see all tech development in the UK controlled by the British government though licensing. To protect children and save us from ‘harms’. The obvious choice to control every aspect of UK tech development, who else but our Queen, Dido. ….. Tron
Tron, howdy,
Have you no news services/media mongers/tall tale tellers in your neck of the woods? Are you unaware of the factual reality with ITs surreal Virtual Advanced IntelAIgent Operating Systems capabilities and utilities in Universal Command and CHAOS Control [Clouds Hosting Advanced Operating Systems] being also as a fiction to try to deny is an almighty truth against which Earthed Administrations of Remote SCADA Systems [Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition Systems] do constant exhausting of blood and treasure battle leading to ignominious total defeat?
To even imagine any British Parliamentary government in control of any tech development is clearly quite ludicrous and risible whenever wannabe leaderships within are so demonstrably unfit for Greater IntelAIgent Games Purpose.
As something much more likely to be the case though, you might like to consider the greater opposite/reverse/obverse …. tech development coming to aid of a remote virtual command and in control of governments worldwide.
Breaking news, El Reg, and truly fantastic too ‽ ‽ Yes, it is, for an Emergent Radically Evolving Progress, and Fundamental Revolutionary Quantum Leaping Change breaking any present cycles of current persistent madness which would propose doing what is familiar and traditional and conventional with more of the same and expecting things to be different and better whenever all available evidence, both past and present, proves beyond any shadow of doubt such results in everything being steadily and considerably worse.
🙂 Tron, I have assumed your post was not being sarcastic or ironic or cynical and is not shared as a joke to be easily missed with no obvious hilarious punchline.
Can Israel survive without any strong US dollar support/supply? With $ monopolistic hegemony in danger of being lost in future markets repurposed to prosper without such a convenient foreign inconvenience/imposition/requirement, some folks interests are sure to skewed and skewered to have it remaining unchallenged and rendered globally known as impotent paper backed by nothing really valuable in dire straits constant need of displays of overwhelming defence and attacking destructive military forces to keep it churning/laundered ……. at any and all costs to be paid for with such paper.
One has to admit though …… it has been a great magic trick offering fantastic advantage to a very select few for more time than was surely ever realised could be possible. Great for some while it lasted/lasts certainly, but things change and ignorance and arrogance are always fated to be bested and destined to be vanquished by invariably nothing grander than simple common sense and answers to questions which cannot be spun to deny a bright light which leads being shone into a captivating darkness that has one virtually petrified and practically disenabled to move in any novel direction of one’s own free radical choice.
Do you realise that is where everything now is at ‽ . And it is proving itself problematical and impossible for extant systems to fix and repair with patch solutions to catastrophically exposed positions ….. vulnerabilities for 0day market exploitations/otherworldy attacks requiring AI [Alien Interventions] ‽
Or do you disagree and see something quite different happening everywhere?
Emerging world-leading tech which is ignored and offered no rewarding engagement or agreeable compensation in the West because of its very likely extremely disruptive and even catastrophically destructive influence at home would seem then to be a very good fit for China and her exotic and erotic Eastern based allies, and that is something which is naturally bound to happen whenever any home teams, East or West, North or South, abuse and misuse any of their current existing advantages, now rapidly eroding and found to be explosively unstable.
