> Conspiracy theory: China is going to increasingly do these "not quite so bold to warrant a response but still an affront to US security" in the coming months to: 1) Provide argumentative ammo to the right-wing that arming Ukraine is a fool's errand when China is humiliating us and violating our airspace (Their words, not mine. And they're wrong) 2) Make Biden look weak by doing things that shock the public and anger half the county but (any rational person can understand) do not merit an aggressive response.

> We’re less than 2 years from our next presidential election. China keeps poking at us. Nothing too bad to justify any sort Of response but enough to remind us all that they are there. It sows discord among Americans. Right wing candidates run on a platform on ensuring our borders are safe and your children won’t be bombed. Left keeps talking about Ukraine (which the vast voting public couldn’t even pick out on a map). Right wing candidate defeats Biden. China and Russia get what they wanted. Russia used Facebook to scare people to Trump. China will use their military. Rinse repeat.

> You can apply to remain anonymous but it is only granted in specific and rare cases. Can a winner remain anonymous? We consider requests for anonymity on a case by case basis, but the exceptions are rare. BCLC’s role is to ensure that above all else, the integrity of the lottery system is upheld. In addition to conducting a thorough prize claim verification process, one of the most important ways in which we accomplish this is by publicizing winners. I think it is only considered if revealing the winner is a danger to the winner like a domestic violence victim, or someone that has a no contact order etc.
