The Rise of Drone Warfare at the U.S. Southern Border
Recent developments along the U.S. southern border have highlighted an evolving security challenge: the use of drones by drug cartels. These drones are being used for both surveillance of U.S. border patrol and warfare due to infighting between these criminal organizations.
Drug cartels have increasingly employed drones for reconnaissance, scouting the movements of U.S. Border Patrol agents to facilitate the smuggling of drugs and humans across the border. This tactical use of technology allows cartels to adapt their smuggling routes in real-time, avoiding interception and maximizing their illicit profits. The drones, often commercially available models, are modified to carry payloads, ranging from small drug packages to surveillance equipment.
The escalation to drone bombs represents a significant shift in cartel tactics. Reports from the ground, especially from areas like Michoacán and Chiapas in Mexico, show drones being used to drop explosives. These attacks target rival cartels, Mexican security forces, and occasionally come dangerously close to U.S. territory. The use of explosive-laden drones introduces a new level of violence, turning what was once a tool for smuggling into a weapon of territorial warfare.
U.S. and Mexican authorities are grappling with this aerial threat. The U.S. has acknowledged over 1,000 drone incursions monthly, indicating the scale of the issue. However, exact numbers are hard to pin down due to the lack of comprehensive detection systems tailored for small, low-flying drones. The response includes deploying counter-drone technology, like radio-frequency jammers, but the adaptability and low cost of cartel drones make this an ongoing cat-and-mouse game.
The use of combat drones by cartels not only escalates the violence in Mexico but also poses a direct challenge to U.S. border security. It underscores the need for advanced technological countermeasures and increased international cooperation to tackle this transnational threat. Moreover, it raises concerns about the potential for these tactics to evolve further, possibly integrating more advanced technologies or even autonomous capabilities in the future.

Satoshi took a major leap of faith by allowing those with the most physical power to have the most control over ledger writing authority. Effectively instantiating a might is right resource control structure over the protocol. Satoshi replicated the same kind of hierarchy found within nature. This highlights that there is a supreme wisdom to the way pack animals in nature determine the state of ownership of their property. Satoshi really just rediscovered the same primordial protocol that nature has known for billions of years, only this time it's totally non-lethal.

I'm todays world where tyrants are cracking down on freedoms globally, I believe using Jason Lowery’s arguments of digital freedom fighting is the fastest path towards mass adoption.
People know they are being exploited but they don't see any reasonable way to PHYSICALLY resist. #Bitcoin is literally a means of projecting physical power to regain permissionless control over your life. That's the slam dunk argument to orange pill people all over the planet.
Study it, ruminate on it, meditate on it
Become one with warfare

"As history continues to repeat itself, these new types of software-codified abstract power hierarchies are becoming as systemically insecure and oppressive as their predecessors were. It is reasonable to believe that this will lead to population-scale exploitation (assuming it hasn’t already – which would be easy to debate) which must inevitably be resolved the same way it always has been resolved: using a real-world physical power competition to physically constrain and decentralize the emerging tyrannical, technocratic ruling classes and their oppressive empires. In other words, a new form of digital abstract power is likely to bring a new form of digital warfare to physically decentralize and constrain it, just as warfare has always been used as a mechanism to physically decentralize and constrain abstract power hierarchies"

Many in this community called this man a spook when he literally wrote the book on how to successfully wage a war against the tyrants oppressing people globally and was silenced for it.
I am once again asking you to kindly wake the fuck up

Hey @jack mallers any hint on what your talk in Amsterdam will be about? You've been crushing it lately..
#Bitcoin is humanity's digital antlers 

"Technically speaking, #Bitcoin is an international power competition between drone swarms. Instead of having machines compete against each other using kinetic power in the air, land, sea, or space domains, Bitcoin’s machines are placed on a rack and they compete against each other using electric power in the cyber domain. It’s the same game, but in a different domain – a domain that doesn’t risk nuclear annihilation and doesn’t appear to be stalemated."

"#Bitcoin represents the only globally-adoptable physical power projection technology that is practically useful for nations to settle major policy disputes (including but not limited to international financial policy disputes), establish zero-trust control over valuable resources (including but not limited to financial information), achieve global consensus on the legitimate state of ownership and chain of custody of property (including but not limited to digital property), and preserve freedom of action and exchange of goods across cyberspace, and do it all beyond the limit of the kinetic ceiling where kinetic power projection competitions are no longer practically useful. Combining these observations with the fact that running a hash force can be a profitable endeavor due the high monetary value that people assign to underlying bits of information exchanged across these networks, this means proof-of-power protocols like Bitcoin paradoxically have the potential to represent the most powerful and efficient physical power projection technologies ever discovered by agrarian society."
