+0.28 NIST Seeking Public Comment on AI Agent Security (Deadline: March 9, 2026) (www.federalregister.gov)
41 points by ascarola 6 hours ago | 8 comments on HN | Government transparency and public participation platform with positive HRCB lean. Strong signals on information access (Article 19), political participation (Article 21), and governance frameworks (Article 28). Minor friction from access controls. Primary utility is structural enablement of rights rather than editorial advocacy. Policy · vv3.4 · 2026-02-24
