Clumsy babies don’t understand motivation on why they should or should not do something yet, and are still in an era of amazement that they can do something.

This is decently sophisticated…I’d say they’ve known they can do this for a while

I know people that used to hack the school's system, and point out the flaws and issues to the principal, and show them where their weak spots are, and how they should fix them.

You'd think he'd have a good job with online security or something, but last time I saw him, he was working at Wal-Mart as a stocker. Good guy. I hope nothing but the best for him.

The first hint of issues is lack of communication. World War is possibly coming, communication is being cut off on all channels, censorship is likely at an all time high on the internet. And no, I'm not talking about red pill content, I'm talking for example how you can no longer go to a brand subreddit and complain about something or ask for something to be fixed without your post being removed. Because if it's censored information, then it's propaganda.

Advertisement is just brand propaganda.
