SSG Robert Mark Odom Long Past Due. "I Remember Way back When during the Great War" The COMSEC/OPSEC Warnings on the Phones we Used to Use on the Base. I Remember COMSEC Monitoring of the AUTOVON Network. I Also Remember Listening In to Phone Sex between a Marine in Rota and His Wife in the States. In My Past Occupation, Always Assume You are Being Monitored.

"Rather than relying on artificial intelligence or algorithms, German says, it would be more constructive to simply improve the whistleblower system so that reports of racist misconduct are taken seriously."
I agree. Being anonymously tipped off to a specific individual would be much more likely to find people with serious intent to further a racist agenda. Unfortunately that method is less likely to line the right people's pockets so they will instead toss millions to a contractor for a system that will be abandoned in just a few years.
There are certain groups and phrases that are popular with white supremacists/nationalists/"separatists" though so maybe the idea has some merit. A simple search for something like the 14 Words or likes on white supremacist bands music videos(yes, they exist) would probably get you a few results. I sympathized a bit with the white "separatists" as a teen(yes, I was stupid and naive) until I realized that those folks were straight racist so I know a few of the common threads.
