Twelfth: inferred belief, emotion, identity, or association must never
be sufficient by itself for targeting, detention, or lethal action.
Mental-state inference is probabilistic, contestable, culturally
fragile, and vulnerable to manipulation. Outward evidence and
lawful standards remain necessary.
Thirteenth: protected and official crisis communications must be
authenticated.
Surrender, ceasefire, humanitarian, medical, nuclear-risk, and
command channels need shared provenance and verification
procedures that remain usable when synthetic audio and video are
common.
Fourteenth: military collection of neural and intimate mental-state
data must be exceptional, necessary, proportionate, secure, legally
reviewed, and subject to independent oversight.
The existence of a sensor does not create a right to enter the

They give the person who wants to pause something stronger
than instinct.
They turn restraint from personal weakness into collective
obligation.

practical.
The old me wanted one day of judgment.
The world needs years of meetings.
That is less dramatic.
It is also how lives are saved.
DRAW THE LINE BEFORE THE MACHINE CROSSES IT.
FFTAC ACTION - Support a specific law, treaty, standard, or public
rule that keeps lethal authority and nuclear escalation under accountable
human control. Put your name on the record.
