Fics like The Last Byline

By the time the first scientist vanished, Mara Venn had been covering automated warfare for eleven years, long enough to know that murder looked very different when it wore a corporate logo. A drone strike had a chain of command. A battlefield platform had procurement records. A weapons failure had victims, liability, and if the gods were feeling theatrical, a Senate hearing. But this was different. The first footage came out of the Timor Sea conflict zone, leaked through a regional aid worker whose feed was dead within seven minutes of upload. Mara caught it because she had alerts set for Faro Automated Solutions, Chariot line, autonomous swarm, biomass conversion, and twelve other phrases that made her editor’s eyes glaze over. --- The last months as seen through the eyes of a journalist.
