Really? Civilian contractors are legitimate targets? How interesting.
I'm not saying murican Big Tech is innocent, but no, i don't think they're legitimate targets as per internationally perceived rules of engagement (yet).

    They are literally using these data centers for target selection and surveillance. How is that not a war machine? By your logic nothing the US military uses is a legitimate target because they don’t actually own the tanks and planes and missiles, they contract that all out to Blackwater and Lockheed etc.

    Get real. Allied forces bombed factories all throughout WW2 and the US nuked civilian targets in Japan.

    The idea that wars have laws and rules is hilarious, because US has broken all of them with no consequences in 80 years.

    Even Obama drone striked entire villages, cowardice is what the US military does best.
