And what exactly do you think makes CONCORD 'best equipped to analyze the risks or dangers' of this technology? Do you think the Empires are incapable of clinical trials? Do you think the SoCT can't conduct the same analysis as CONCORD? CONCORD is interested only in preserving CONCORD's power. The Empires have been best served when they have pointedly made CONCORD remember that CONCORD only exists because the Empires find it useful for it to do so.

I don't have to provide analysis of the things you're willing to demonstrate daily, Jaret. |

Makoto Priano wrote:Arrendis, my suspicion is that the Society and CONCORD have, in all likelihood, more complete knowledge of Jovian technology, and probably Drifter technology, than most other organizations.
Certainly, specifically cutting CONCORD and the Society out of the loop was for a reason, and this is the most sensible reason.
Could I be wrong? Oh, sure, absolutely.
But it's not nothing.
It's worth noting that there are no indications that the Society was unaware of this development. Only that CONCORD was. |

Well, CONCORD had been 'openly' discussing 'new cloning technology' with the Empires and the Council for Stellar Management, as detailed in a Scope video some weeks ago. |

That's speculation, Elmund. We don't actually know what CONCORD regulations say.
We have no idea what CONCORD does and doesn't do. We don't know what they're legally authorized to do. We don't know what CONCORD regulations actually prohibit and what they've simply 'convinced' people to disable when building pods. We don't even know if CONCORD is actually empowered to issue directives to the Empires that they are required to comply withGÇöwho is the actual sovereign power? The Empires, or CONCORD?
We don't know.
We don't know because again, we don't actually have access to the documents that created CONCORD or which govern its operations. We don't even have access to the documents CONCORD issues to govern our interactions. We only have the 'tl;dr' version they see fit to give us.
We cannot evaluate CONCORD, we cannot critque CONCORD, and we cannot trust CONCORD without access to the full text of the Yulai Conventions, and CONCORD's operational directives, both internal, and with regard to Capsuleers.
We simply cannot. Any claims of knowledge beyond 'CONCORD shows up and shoots you if you shoot someone else' are pure guesswork. We must demand the release of those documents. Until they are released, CONCORD is an illegitimate tyranny. |
