SAFE will certainly store files, and it will do so in such a way that nobody will know who is reading them or who published them, striving to be completely censorship resistant. Think TOR hidden services that your grandma can use. The netw

CCW citizens are very often the people who take down such shooters. Your comment seems to imply otherwise. A recent example is the Texas church shooting that happened recently, where an armed citizen with a non-concealed firearm in that ca
