Planet Labs, one of the world’s leading commercial satellite imaging companies, said Friday it is placing a hold on releasing imagery of some parts of the Middle East as a regional war enters its second week.

Planet wants to prevent “adversarial actors” from using images for “Battle Damage Assessment” purposes.

    This isn’t new behavior. This is regular western shenanigans. I mean, western propaganda is incredibly effective. The indoctrination process starts shortly after birth, but there’s plenty of information out there to see the west has been evil for hundreds of years, and probably longer.

    The US has been involved in some form of war for roughly 230 out of it’s 250 years of existence. It’s what it do. War.

      Europe’s record really isn’t very different, but maybe they got it out of their system after WW2, India (Britain), Vietnam (France), Argentina (France & Britain) Bosnia, most of Africa, Kosovo.

      It’s all evil. All of humanity. You can’t possibly tell me forcing women under blankets and not educating them is okay. The genocide in China.

      Fuck humans. Fuck the religions that humans made up. Fuck us all.
