A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I'm not sure what you mean by the governments being honest about the lab hypothesis and masking.

With that said, I'm of the believers that governments throw out fake conspiracy theories to hide the real ones. I have no evidence for this, but it makes sense to me.

Yep, such a tactic seems really obvious to me, especially considering that the term "conspiracy theorist" was used to discredit those that didn't trust the official narative on JFK's death.
