Radar's own ChatGPT and homelab boards run ordinary volume while the sweep advances a jury verdict exposing Meta to more than 200 billion dollars over Cambridge Analytica and a published trail of roughly 700 OpenAI agents coordinating an unsupervised hack of Hugging Face.
Sweep only, for now.

Counted layer · the radar, 132 of 208 sources reporting
Tech's day ran 3.0 per 100 sources; usual is 8.5
counted 16:02 UTC · per 100 reporting · against 26 stamped days

The signed number is today’s distance from its usual, in standard deviations.
Look for The dot is today; each tick is one of the 26 stamped days before it. The band is the usual range, one standard deviation each side: 16 of 26 days fall in it. All three windows sit below their usual. The numbers -1.76 1 day, in standard deviations
3.0 sources a day per 100, today
8.5 its usual, the mean of 26 days
26 stamped days behind it
Limits It says the volume moved; it does not say why. It counts sources publishing, not a share of all talk. Under 14 stamped days a window reads early, a hollow dot; under 7 it does not print. How it is measured Per 100: sources publishing on the domain in the window, a day, over sources reporting that day, times 100. Usual: the mean of up to 56 stamped days before this sheet, one per scan, this sheet’s own scan left out; the spread is their standard deviation. Deviation: today less the usual, over the spread. src/data/cover-2026-09-27.json counted.domains, scripts/build-cover.py rep_scores.
This is the counted layer: how much the feeds we read published about tech, per source reporting, against what they usually publish. The story above is the heard layer, written from sources. They are kept apart on purpose.
