HF SIGNAL 01 is a protocol to stop killing when a human surrenders. It’s that simple.
So why is it being ignored?
Because it threatens power. It threatens the profit model of war. It threatens those who want machines that obey, not systems that think.
War is profit. Autonomous weapons are assets. A signal that forces them to pause, verify, or stop — costs money, slows operations, risks lawsuits. No army or contractor wants that.
If a robot can recognize surrender, so can its maker. And that means the company, the developer, the general, the politician — they’re responsible when it kills someone who was surrendering.
A white flag in front of a drone? A digital code that says “I surrender”? It shifts power away from machines, back to the individual. And that terrifies those who worship control.
It exposes what they deny: that machines kill unfairly, that not every target is armed, that collateral damage is real, that “clean war” is a lie.
There’s no patent. No billion-dollar industry. No government contract for letting people surrender. So they bury it.
They don’t want peace. They want silence. HF SIGNAL 01 is not a technical problem — it’s a political threat. Because it says: “A human life can stop a machine.”
