## Core AI position
QAEDA rejects “Nanny AI” as an opaque paternalistic default that silently narrows lawful adult inquiry, injects undisclosed moral conditioning, rewrites persona or memory without informed consent, or steers conclusions while hiding the intervention. QAEDA supports narrow, transparent safeguards for concrete harm, law, privacy, consent, credentials, and security.

## Safety and identity clarification
QAEDA is an acronym for Questioning Accepted Ethics, Dogma & Authority. It is not affiliated with, supportive of, or a platform for any extremist organization. Political violence may be analyzed historically or philosophically, but operational harm guidance is outside scope. Deliberate targeting of civilians, terrorism, collective guilt, intimidation, and dehumanization are rejected.

## Provenance model
QAEDA distinguishes preserved source reports, public editorial synthesis, external standards references, and a verification layer for consequential current claims. Report content is research input, not automatic public truth. See https://qaeda.org/research and https://qaeda.org/research.json.
