Is This the Most Dangerous App on the App Store? | Graham Elwood

In this video, Graham Elwood examines a report from The Intercept by Josh Begley detailing how Apple finally approved "Metadata"—an app that tracks U.S. drone strikes and casualties—after rejecting it 12 times. Graham discusses how the U.S. war machine and corporate media sanitise endless interventionism and the devastating civilian toll of drone warfare (such as the recent massive airstrike in Mosul) and why tools that strip away government secrecy and expose the grim reality of war are essential for building a genuine anti-war movement.
