It is a welcome move if facebook wants to be a true social platform, and increase its acceptance within me than rejection. But this particular change must come with a degree of transparency, which is required IMO to address your humorous but serious comment, and address larger value of this move.

    - How would facebook detect nation-state attacks?
    - How do we make the policy around it participative and open?
    - Etc.

"We do this by a combination of traffic monitoring, incident tracking and utilizing cellular network infrastructure to notify the engineers responsible for sending the warning in time between the NSL reaching front desk and CEO becoming aware of its content."

> - How do we make the policy around it participative and open?

"Everyone is free to receive a warning about being targeted by a state or state-sponsored actor, regardless of race, religion, gender, income and sexual preferences of said actor."
