Spoiler: sto lavorando a un pezzo sul mercato predittivo. Ho iniziato a fare le prime chiamate e a inviare mail a soggetti che voglio sentire. Tuttavia, se pensate di avere qualcosa di importante da dire in merito (o conoscete qualcuno che ne sa a pacchi), non esitate a segnalarmelo!
Si può parlare di tutto e dire le cose piú controverse, ma mai davanti a qualcuno che ne tiene conto a livello giuridico.

I still see too many users here unaware of this, and it's why we are never getting things like soft-blocking, restricted/locked accounts, or circles (and if we do, you shouldn't trust them).

Well, that’s a cautionary tale on multiple levels about “surveillance systems can have very unexpected and unwanted consequences.”
What appears to have happened is that the United States, which fired the guided missile, did not have readily available information that the school was not part of the compound and had not been so since 2016. This fact could be shown by open-source, public-domain information. But it appears the US military did not have or use up-to-date information. It relied on out-of-date information instead, and so killed over 100 children during their day at school. Schools are specifically protected from attacks under international law, as ably set out in this important article by former UK prime minister Gordon Brown. And the US secretary of state Marco Rubio and defence secretary Pete Hegseth have both denied that the school was deliberately targeted (though little weight can perhaps be placed on official government denials of any war crime). Even if the school was not deliberately targeted as a school, there is still a requirement under international law for an attacker to do what they can to make sure they know what they are attacking. As Professor Janina Dill of the University of Oxford explains, an attacker has to do everything feasible to verify the status of a targeted object. And here it is significant that the weapon of choice was a guided missile: this was a pre-selected target. The US government and military accept there is a potential problem here, despite the immediate attempts by President Trump to falsely blame the Iranians themselves.
