    Title makes it sound like wired is agreeing with this label, but the article shows that wired is actually quite critical of this type of labeling.

    > Meanwhile, the same intelligence center also circulated a report in March showing monitoring of constitutionally protected events and demonstrations related to critical views on technology. These events included multiple "Tesla Takedown" protests against Elon Musk’s ransacking of the US government and a “Break Up With Tech Rager" sponsored by Eject Elbit, an activist group organizing to halt investment in the Israeli weapon’s manufacturer Elbit.

      Why'd you have to get political? All we're saying is that anyone who doesn't have at least 15 years of good solid Facebook history and is at least moderately in love with all things AI is probably a domestic terrorist and should be shot.
