Sadly we really don't know that's all.

Look, I volunteer to respond to natural disasters. This will be very useful. Don't confuse preparedness for tragedy for planning to enact atrocities. You undermine the trust in systems that are absolutely necessary in times of great need.

Yeah sorry but where did I say that our government is "planning to enact atrocities" ?

All I'm saying in a tongue in cheek kinda way ( but half on the fence because the way the world goes at times ) is that "we" really don't know.

But in a very serious tone, I fully appreciate what you do and I'm glad we have a system in place. Using tech for good is a wonderful thing. Respect to you.
