They say our neutrality is a fig leaf for the perpetuation of war. But unlike our critics, we are not blinded by ideology and petty tribalism. Our technology is for the benefit of everyone. That is why the next phase in our ASN program is to move beyond its military applications and focus on you, the people. We recognize the great harm that was done during [[Codex/Key Events/The Blackout|the Blackout.]] And so, it is our goal to foster meaningful connections once again and give rise to a truly global community.
