I think this report was actually written before the Sam Altman Molotov cocktail attack, or at least was written around the same time.

But I think probably a little bit before.

But considering the Molotov cocktail attack on Sam Altman's property and the gunshots fired into the home of a pro data center city council person, like it makes sense that law enforcement is considering anti-AI violence as an emerging threat vector.

But it also makes sense to be concerned that nonviolent opposition may get caught in a federal or state-level dragnet.
