Why it surfaced

F-ACT asks who authorized an agent, what it may do, what data it can use, how its actions are audited, and how its authority can be revoked. The site presents F-ACT 1.0 as free to cite and implement, with a royalty-free patent pledge intended to place its core claims under neutral Swiss stewardship.
