I pressed the button, and it asked me to confirm that I want to participate in a “social deception game”, which I did. I’m somewhat ambivalent that this event does anything except raise awareness of a specific thing that happened during the cold war (and presumably has been patched away in current response procedures), but it’s interesting to see people taking it seriously.
Depending on the framing, I will or will not press it if I’m chosen. I’ll try to play along with the rules and guidelines as published, including the in-game motivations specified.
Thanks for posting this—I never look at the front page, so would have missed it.

Thanks. If it’s indeed framed as a game then I would like to participate as well. So I pressed the button and opted in.
