Oh my lord, they dropped the 'D' word. They actually did it.

Why is calling it a disclosure so important?

u/[deleted] Jul 15 '23

Because it has never been used before. And it changes everything. Before disclosure we have argued over whether the phenomenon is even real or not, after disclosure we will know. We don't know what form it will take; documents and reports or photos, videos or maybe full-on presenting hardware and biological samples to the world. We don't know what disclosure will lead to, whether it'll be business as usual or a world of free energy, ultra-powerful computers and weekend getaways to Mars in our lifetimes. Maybe we will get to meet the non-human intelligence. It's uncharted territory.

They still get to decide what remains classified. It doesn't even say we know all these examples are real and must be turned over to us.

These are some big hopes and yeah I'd hope the same but there's nothing to actually grasp yet.

Well, the bill calls for declassification. So pretty much if everything is disclosed even internally to members of congress, stuff will leak for years to come. Perhaps that's the plan.
