I'm not saying this sarcastically but with honest confusion, is the warning from an entity or group that hasn't spent a lot of time on the internet? I'm not young by any stretch of the imagination and people have had very easy,almost accidental access to horrific imagery and media since the advent of the internet. Fake titled gore on Napster, image boards, etc.

I will say the quality/detail of the content has gotten disturbingly more clear. That part makes it more disturbing to me. The Ukraine community has a shocking amount of drone video where it's like a front row seat to the last seconds of someone's life.
