Hahahaha, indeed it looks like it. That said, you can learn a log from WWII how propaganda claims and reality relate to each other.

The law does not count for much in the US these days, hence I have no problems believing that. Apparently, they have noticed something if they stayed away from devices outside of the US though.

Forget it. The tech-skill of the average person is limited to "plug in cables as shown on the nice picture".

Indeed. But I guess with no routers for end-users being commercially available in the US in the near future (or at least that seems to be the intent), people will have to learn.

If this claim is true, that is a criminal act in most of the world. You are not allowed to patch IT systems belonging to other people without explicite permission.

Seriously. This is, at best, just one of the usual criminal enterprises.

Then Adam Curtis is an idiot. A "dirty bomb" is not about actually killing people. It is all about making people afraid to go into an area.

There is just one: Don't do it. The cost is far greater than any potential benefits and modern technology makes any conflict asymmetric. That Russia has still not "won" in Ukraine should have warned even the most stupid. But apparently, more stupid (or really, really desperate, see the Epstein docs) is always a possibility.

I think the same. This is something they desperately want. They hope to impress and crush the Iranians mentally, because that is all they have. Obviously, the other side thinks they have God on their side and hence is quite unimpressed. In addition, add the obvious and crass incompetence of the US administration, the lack of war goals, the indiscriminate killing of civilians and this is really not an opponent that will impress the Iranian leadership. And the population gets no say there. Which, come to think of it, increasingly represents the US situation as well.

On the tech side, apparently they currently hope to boost range of this tech to be able to detect submarines at up to something like 5km. A submarine has a bit more of a magnetic signature than a human. I think detecting a heartbeat with a current quantum magnetometer will probably work for up to a few meters at best.

Indeed. "Quantum" and "AI" in there as signifiers of "magic", "power" and "superiority". I am surprised they did not throw in "crapto" as well, but apparently that was too far out even for the no-mental-capabilities-at-all MAGAs.

Funny detail: Quantum Magnetometers have a really low range in the area of a few km only. They currently hope to get them to being able to detect submerged submarines at up to something like 5km. The tech is also not secret at all and not even really new. I think we can reliably say the claimed use case here is a total lie.

Only that the uranium stockpiles are under a mountain of dirt because the Iranians buried them. Which is cheap, easy and really low-tech. And can be reversed easily and cheaply if you do it on your own territory. Hence unless the US brings a number of excavators and at least a few weeks of time while being sitting ducks, no uranium stockpiles are going to get grabbed.

The CIA will not have passed anything on that was really a secret. They know that President Demented Fool cannot keep quiet about things.

Anyways, the whole story has no credibility. Quantum Magnetometers have just a few km of range. They found these people some other way and now push this lie to appear superior and have magic at their disposal. Classical propaganda claims.

They did not "invent" these. You can buy them. And the range these things have is a few km.

The whole thing is propaganda bullshit and a claim to have "magic" at their disposal. Pure propaganda. I am sure the MAGAs are all deeply impressed.

It does not look like this did anything to "stop nukes". Iran still has the material. Iran can still make nukes with not too much effort. The main reason they stopped is that they do not actually need to have nukes. But after this moronic attacks, they got freshly motivated in that area.

Indeed. While that nicely sums it up, the MAGA idiots are not equipped to understand what is actually going on and how much of an epic fail the whole thing is. The only real thing the US accomplished is kill masses of civilians, many of them children. Such a heroic thing to do.
