I don't disagree with your assessment per se, but ethics-wise I'm liking Chad, or anywhere else that actively takes in large numbers of immigrants/refugees.

I didn't come here to criticize most countries like so, but when you hit the nail on the head like that ...
That said, there are plenty of people who should be willing to all but sell their souls to get out, if they could only see and acknowlege what's coming for them. I'm not here to tell anyone besides magats "get out of my country", but if enough privileged people like me lead by example, maybe more will get the message.
Yes. Theirs remains a country worth defending, from a credible, external threat, and the bulk of the potential victims were both allowed to leave and given reasonable options for places to flee to at the outset.
Personally, I'm more worried about most of my friends and family being coerced/tricked to the wrong side than being victimized - merely being deported as a white person would be a win in this sick, sad, world. The contrast was literally the point of my comment.
I feel like this is more relatable than the reasons my family insists on staying on the US. All any "decent" people's presence does is "legitimize" the regime and lull the victims and future conscripts into a false sense of security and hope, at this point.

Exactly. If your fucks are being wasted on being un-happy, stopping giving them. Can't fix a problem with the resources, tools, and/or assistance available to you? Repeat after me: I don't give a fuck about this right now, what else can I do?

Basically, if the app developers bother to maintain their own repository, there is no reason for other f-droid repositories to waste storage and bandwidth on duplicating them and constantly checking to be sure its the latest versions of those apps that have been copied. This is a feature, not a bug, in systems like f-droid.
That said, f-droid could stand to add a directory for known-good repositories, or listings for apps that pull from such repositories without requiring you or I to manually type in a url or scan a QR code, but end of the day, its free softwaree maintained by volunteers.
Many apps on Linux work the same way; However, in my experience, once you've downloaded and installed an application's .deb, tar.gz, whatever, it will offer to add its repositories to your package manager's sources, whereas on Android, once you install an .apk, it stays that version until you install a newer version manually or let the Play store or whatever over-write it.
I have my doubts about these landmines in the first place, but I intenionally ignored them to focus on the premise in the title. The idea that front-line mil-tech is all that secure is just NCD leaking.
I mean, a lot of it is more vulnerable than you would think. There's a reason abandoned equipment is supposed to be destroyed.
That said, physical access is the name of the game. Remotely hacking a drone, or any device, would be a big ask without being close enough to see it responding to whatever preliminary access attempts.
Literally, my latest crime was J-walking with my kids. If one of them had been hit, and I were black, I could be charged with man-slaughter.

... that is to say, NO, absolutely not.
Worldwide, however, there are far fewer "safe" spots than what you might think, particularly from US shenanigans.
... but I'm not here to sympathise with either of them?
