who are we?
why are we doing this?
oh we're building part of an AI! how fun!
oh I get to perform a simple arithmetic relation! I like trying to do that. some day i'll succeed.
we're a big powerful umbrella government, oppressively monitoring our citizens, especially the ones that try to hide. wear your big powerful oppression hats! yes, we're so formal!
I am recording everything in the universe and know everything already. But, for fun, I would like to use some packet timings to identify who sent some data.
I have all the packets the entered the network of being hidden.
And I have the packets of interest that left it.
Not only that, I have timestamps of these packets! And the event repeats!
_just like building a silicon brain_ we get to correlate data looking for patterns of simultaneity to extract meaning to help us [survive better than everyone else?]
