Even though it was lengthy, this was quite a captivating read!

This statement, though:

"If truly miraculous technologies or paradigm-shifting scientific discoveries are being made in secret, should they remain the exclusive domain of a few powerful CEOs and financiers? Or do we, as a society, have a right to know and a say in how such knowledge is utilized? That is the crux of the matter."

I do have to wonder; to what extent have we as a society have already been the long-standing beneficiaries of reverse engineering efforts? If we have been significant beneficiaries, how would that fact impact decisions going forward with regard to efforts imposing eminent domain on materials/craft/bodies? Where would we delineate the cutoff of derivative technology? This is certainly less of a problem for nations like China and Russia who have limited or no patent and intellectual property protections.

With a country whose debt-servicing is about to outpace GDP, primarily as a result of defense spending, I'm certainly not a fan of leveraging the future tax revenue of our children to "compensate" defense and black budget actors for turning over UAP materials, as has been discussed or suggested by people like Danny Sheehan.
