Why is it different?
I'm looking at the
User's Manuals for CIA hacking tools in the latest Wikileaks offering. These little files are no different from User's Manuals for other types of software. I've written dozens of manuals with similar patterns, though mine don't look quite as official and don't have labels like TOP SECRET/NOFORN at the top.
Yeah, banality of evil and all that ... but there's something deeper going on here that I couldn't see at first. I had to stop and think. How is this software different from non-evil software? What can it do that my useful educational software and pointless recreational software can't do?
Compare with earlier spy tools. Shortwave receivers and transmitters were used as spy tools. CIA and
KGB had their own specific xmtrs and rcvrs. Why weren't they also incurably evil?
Because radios, like guns, can be used offensively and defensively and recreationally. Hacking software is purely offensive. It has no defensive or recreational uses. It serves solely to STEAL information and DAMAGE machinery.
Globalists use tools solely for aggressive and criminal purposes.
Localists use tools defensively.
