I posted this 4 part on In-Q-Tel. Q brought In-Q-Tel up so here it is again
1 of 4
What is the keystone?
Does SES stand for Social Ecological Systems
Two groups of interest
-
In-Q-Tel venture capital investing investment firm started in 1999 by CIA.
-
Highlands forum, pentagon venture capital
Both founded to fund start up programs for cyber defense.
I am not trying to say Q is CIA.4 But Q might have chosen that name to highlight CIA In-Q-Tel. Crumbs for annons to follow, everything has purpose and meaning.

PAPER discusses various issues impacting cyber defense. Including Extremistan unpredictability like shrodengers cat.
Black swan event, an event that lies outside of assumptions that destroys the predictability of the Gaussian bell curve.
SES stands for Social-Ecological Systems in cyberspace
This is where it is really interesting.
Social ecological systems SES is the idea that comex system self organize around a central point.
Natural nodes would be naturally occuring self organized central points found in complex environment like cyberspace.
Commentary based on paper
I believe that the current state we are a witness to is a battle of the nodes, one set of nodes is natural and the other is artifical and part of the cyber defense system explained below.
Cyber defense cooked up a plan to occupy cyberspace. They set up a set of artifical nodes specifically to occupy the cyberspace and block the formation of natural nodes. This is controlled space occupied by programs such as twitter, facebook, google and others.
On the otherside nodes of the battle of the nodes are natural nodes developing out of the new media such as breitbart, infowars, drudge, zerohedge etc. These could be considered more natural than the fsm, but not as natural as the incoming nodes such as 8chann, citizen journalism and crowd sourced intelligence like the anons.
