Eisenhower waited until the very last days of his office to say something about it. He took no actions. He also neutered his speech by rewriting "congressional military industrial complex" to "military industrial complex". Yes, I appreciate he said something at all, but he could have done much much more.

It reminds me of employees at Facebook leaving saying its so unethical what the company is doing, after having received massive pay for years.

Actually it is the exact application to develop with no code. It is a clone of an existing website, where there are already 100s other clones, so it will extremely likely amount to nothing and not surpass 10 users, meaning the performance impact will not impact anyone.

This is one of the ideas Jordan Peterson lectures. People don't try to make the best decision, they make the decisions this is least likely to get them in trouble with their boss.

>We now consider that to be propaganda.

We always considered it propaganda. Just like modern day advertising and marketing. Its all propaganda. They are trying to convince you to believe something (that is likely not true. ie: we have the best product)

1.USA.gov used to be a blind bitly redirect service. It would redirect any bitly URL.

Example: 1.usa.gov/abc would redirct to the same place as bit.ly/abc
