RESF crisis comms - single source of truth

Situation

In a RESF crisis, publish one official blog post as the central source of truth. All responses on social media (Hacker News, LWN, HPC forums) link back to that post. Do not engage in real-time debates. Own the traditional news cycle, not social media.

Reasoning

Real-time social media engagement is a losing game - you get baited into saying things that can be used against you. Control the narrative through a single, carefully crafted statement. When the FBI shows up, that makes headlines - need to own the traditional news cycle.

Additional Context

Planning for potential RESF crisis if Lewis is removed. Key channels identified: LWN, Hacker News, HPC.com. Lindsay already working on comms plan. Greg will read a script (first time ever staying on script).

Observed Evidence

Max: "We need to own the news cycle. And we need to own the traditional news post... I dont think we need to own social media" and Nathan: "Point people to that... Its when you start engaging in real time that you start losing" and Peter: "Getting those linkages back to your central blog post, where are all the places that were going to have to go look immediately? Thats LWN and Hacker News. Everything else is noise"
