The public debate about #disinformation, influence operations and responses… is lacking scrutiny & real debate over rapidly developing defence policies and military responses, esp on ethics. If only public expert discussions got as focused in the weeds on this as on #BigTech.
What discussions do happen seem to be driven my ex-military personnel and very focused on the ‘how to’ of understanding enemies and developing messages and targeting etc… as usual.
People badly need to start to care about this.
It genuinely seems like most of the experts who don’t study the military and who are calling for more national security responses, don’t actually know much about what militaries do, or the rules that govern it or changing practises and the risks of failing to debate them.
And I’m not sure most of the disinformation focused community actually wants to engage with it let alone having relevant expertise.
