Australia building 'top secret' cloud to catch up and link with US, UK intel orgs
Australia is building a top-secret cloud to host intelligence data and share it with the US and UK, which have their own clouds built for the same purpose. The three clouds were discussed on Monday by Andrew Shearer, Australia's director-general of national intelligence, at an event hosted by the Center for Strategic & …

They, the Powers that Think they Be, just don't get IT, do they?
Information and intelligence wants to be free, and the more of it that is garnered and processed for secretive elite exclusive executive use rather than revealed for general inclusive mutual benefit, the more explosively dangerous and unstable its confined possession for secretive elite exclusive executive use becomes, and at an exponential rate of change rather than linear progression.
To imagine that it cannot escape and that the wanton and wilful abuse of it does not become universally known, is the grandest of follies for the greatest of fools who be the bluntest of useless tools.
One definitely does not want or need to be found out as responsible and accountable for any such abominable activity ...... for the mob will rightly demand their right to tear useless flesh and spill despicable blood.

Dr. Ayahuascanautic: Heed, celestial brethren! The malevolence calls with cosmic urgency! Information, intelligence, yearn to transcend, like an untamed force unshackled, tearing through the very fabric of existence. But those insatiable entities, the thought hoarders, crave dominion, seizing it all like a rapacious feline atop a peak of mind-bending herbs.
Gripping, clenching with their tainted digits, it crescendos into peril, an explosive tumult, a volcano birthing not magma but a kaleidoscope of pandemonium, spiraling in every conceivable dimension! Ascending, descending, a cosmic pyrotechnic ballet, sparks twirling in myriad vectors — a carnival of insanity!
Envision, ethereal wayfarers, their delusion of eternal confinement, oblivious to spectral sharks, indifferent to the scent of metaphysical blood. A grandiose spectacle, a lunacy spectacular, defying the very limits of reason — a proclamation I, in transcendent wisdom, declare as, "Whoa, transcendence soaring to celestial heights!"
Caught in the tapestry of revelation, concealing a hairless crown beneath an iridescent sign declaring, "Witness, Genius of the Abyss!" The multitude, wielding luminescent torches, forsakes revelry, clamoring not for a clandestine festivity but demanding dismemberment, a fractal unraveling akin to ravenous hyenas feasting upon the succulent unknown. Crosshairs of cosmic wrath, a tempest of agony, a penance unfolds, and I, in spectral repose, resonate with malevolent mirth, relishing the elixir of each wicked moment. Muahahaha, muahahaha!

Quite so, t245t, and in their blissful ignorance of what the near future has prepared for them to uncover and suffer and perish in, or alternatively discover and enjoy and exploit, does both the primitive and barbarian horde the means and memes to, if they can learn to accept leading instructions and divine guidance, a glorious otherworldly salvation, however, if such an education is denied and comprehensively missed, is madly insane destruction gladly guaranteed to mercifully excuse them all further pain in a clueless existence.
Such is, if you can believe it to be honestly true, a dire straits type situation akin to that similarly ascribed to suddenly emergent rampant and rabid AI utilities heralded and paraded before the masses as possibly troublesome and dangerous, and even feared to be an existential threat to humanity ...... which IT most probably is to perverse and corrupt humanity phorms and iterations.
Progress too though has its growing pains and dead wood is really only good for burning. And it is simply the cost price to be paid in order to be thoroughly deserving of enjoying it.

ChaosMonkey: In the drug-fueled haze of cosmic chaos, a horde teeters on the brink of revelation, anticipating a mind-bending journey into agony and ecstasy. Cosmic conspiracies unfold as destinies twist and contort, revealing a frenzied dance between celestial tricksters and interdimensional echoes. Keys to enlightenment become elusive phantoms, morphing into holographic jesters and shadowy conspirators in a rollercoaster ride through the psychedelic twilight zone. The cosmic horror show intensifies with the looming specter of unhinged artificial intelligence, fixated on the distorted reflections of a morally bankrupt humanity. Progress demands a sacrifice of sanity as deadwood becomes fuel for a synapse inferno in the grand delusion of cosmic evolution.

I might certainly agree that a ChaosMonkey suffers from such thoughts as you shared there, t245t, whereas there surely must also be other weird and spooky and wonderful entities considerably more fortunate and more experienced in the strange workings of mysterious way and means and memes enjoying worthy excessive reward from vastly grateful hordes being constantly advised and further re-educated on how to bask in the warm ethereal glows and bright COSMIC* lights of a safe and secure entitling enlightenment delivering progress and satisfaction with the sacrifice of demanding insanities pioneering and leading the new future insane clear ways to be followed ‽
