This is a great question and one that is worth diving into a bit, but not necessarily by me. There are a plethora of answers here with some insightful and some less so backgrounds. I suggest that you dig into some outside sources and potentially you can work through the complexity of the answer as history often is.

I’m sure others have some great references as well, but given this crowd I’d suggest some youtube videos. I also suggest some recently written long form articles in foreign affairs which is always good for understanding context, as well as a few books.

Also Foreign Affairs has some good long form pieces:

Book wise I recommend:

• Worlds Apart: A Documentary History of US-Iranian Relations, 1978–2018 by Malcolm Byrne and Kian Byrne offers a meticulously curated collection of declassified documents tracing pivotal moments in bilateral tensions, including the Iranian Revolution and nuclear negotiations

• Axis of Empire: A History of Iran-US Relations by Afshin Matin-Asgari examines America’s Cold War hegemony, the shah’s regime, the 1979 Revolution, and Trump-era escalations, including the 2025 US-Israel attempt at regime change in Tehran

• Iran’s Perilous Pursuit of Nuclear Weapons by David Albright uses Mossad-seized Iranian documents to detail clandestine weapons efforts, assassinations of scientists, and cyberwarfare like Stuxnet

I empathize with your off-topic comments, but I think it has much to do with the context of information today. Trump himself is trying to drive any comments of Epstein away by distraction and events. This is one paper on the topic. So many people are throwing the references in as an eye to defiance, anger, frustration, and as part of a trend. If the idiocy in charge wants to distract us, then more than ever we need to stay focused on why he wants to distract us.

That being said, it does have unintended consequences and is not necessarily the best way to handle this. However this new generation hasn’t really had a civil rights, suffrage, British tea party, or even just Arab Spring event to use as a baseline to make change in this entirely digital world now. People are still trying to figure out how to push, have a phone that causes attention distraction, live pay check to pay check, etc. Which is to say organization and protesting is still figuring itself out, so you get ‘release the files’ as a call to arms everywhere.

Going to guess this is a Windows question and you are thinking GUI. In that case I’d suggest the older https://checksumcompare.sanktuaire.com/downloads-en as it’ll do what you ask for visually.

There are a plethora of ways to do this in Linux on the CLI, TUI, and GUI, which is what most answers will likely lean towards given this community. If your apt toward that then start with https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/330933/diffing-two-directories-recursively-based-on-checksums

I think we’re aligned on the core issue but with nuanced perspectives. Regulatory capture is indeed the established academic term for the phenomenon you describe, precisely capturing how agencies meant to protect public interest end up advancing industry priorities through mechanisms like the revolving doorbetween Boeing and Congress.

Where I’d argue the Starliner narrative: While Boeing’s participation provided political cover for Commercial Crew legislation, SpaceX’s 2010 Falcon 9 debut and subsequent rapid repeatability fundamentally reset industry expectations. The success of fixed-price cargo contracts demonstrated reusable rockets and rapid iteration were possible, proving cost-plus models weren’t inevitable. This technological inflection point–not Boeing’s involvement–created the political space for NASA to demand accountability in human spaceflight.

Boeing’s Starliner struggles directly stem from its post-1997 merger culture shift, where McDonnell Douglas’ profit-focused management supplanted engineering excellence. This same culture produced both the 737 MAX flaws and Starliner’s valve failures, showing how regulatory capture enabled systemic safety failures when oversight bodies delegated excessive authority to Boeing.

The breakthrough came not from Boeing’s inclusion but from SpaceX proving fixed-price development could work, breaking the cost-plus mentality that had entrenched inefficiency for decades. Had Commercial Crew relied solely on legacy contractors, the same capture cycle would likely have persisted. SpaceX’s existence changed the incentive structure, not Boeing’s participation

All valid points, and yes SpaceX is a demonstration of how privatization can be more innovative. The challenge is that the counterpoint of Boeing culture change causing things like the Starliner is about as valid when regulatory capture happens.

I’m not saying nationalizing companies would help, but a government with good oversight (which is more and more of a question under Trump) could also help.

Based on the article they are using the 920Mhz range which would imply a 10m range if current standard continue.

So active sensors for a warehouse (or house) to cover 10m bubbles would be pretty useful. Especially when you add something like an Bluetooth/WiFi/Z-Wave/Matter/etc bridge/mesh.

There is a very scare element to this though, as these chips could easily be used nefariously too though.
