The idea is in the name. It is a "data diode". It lets data through in one direction and the data can't go in the other. Verifiably because it doesn't have the hardware for data to go the other direction. I don't th

I don't think we have to look that deep into this. Fusiwe was a man with a short fuse and bad decisions. His dog died, he got frustrated and he snapped at someone. Helena was the one who he happened to hit. I don't think it was li
