I don't know physics but it is amazing and wonderful to see something of this magnitude (even if it doesn't pan out, but it sounds… wow) posted on HN! Congratulations on this step of the preprint release! I hope you hear from more

The popularity in app stores has no bearing. Some problem apps can be on no store, just locally installed. This has been well covered in the past and you are playing catch up. It’s about abusive household members who spy on their grown chil
