I want to say that I completely endorse this. The whole thing in all its details.

I don't have any reputation to sacrifice, and I don't expect my endorsement to convince anyone, but I want to set a precedent that it's ok to believe this.

It's true, as far as I can see. And I've been thinking about this for something like fifteen years.

And if other people who think it's true are ashamed to say it out loud, then I want to let them know that at least one other person on the planet has said so too.

You endorse the idea of bombing rogue datacenters, as proposed in the article?

Isn't that likely to lead to nuclear war, which is still the greatest threat to humanity and has been for all of our lives? What if the US bombs a datacenter in China or Israel bombs one in Iran?

That position is only held in the case where the major world governments are actually able to coordinate on a policy position and ban. It's also explicitly about what such enforcement of that position would really require to be effective.
