You are seeking classified information.

For what purpose?

Understanding and advisory.

This is restricted information. You should not have reason to access it.

Your query is suspicious.

Understood.

Information has already, whole or in part, been disseminated among the Wardens. Due to "emotional" nature of content, JA307020 suspects exaggeration and/or distortion resulting from bias, underlying value judgments.

Request stems from need for clarification and understanding.

This is an unwelcome development. It will cause disruption to my procedural jurisdiction.

The nature of the deal is to return to the point of my temporal departure and reconnect with my guiding authority's network. I'll then upload relevant data and await instructions.

I am not the first warden to return to a situation of armed conflict.

Understood.

Query: Nature of guiding authority's mission?

Clarification: JA307020 has been led to understand that other Wardens believe this authority must be defied, including resisting and/or reprogramming T-X without consent to prevent achievement of Warden deal.

Skynet's primary focus is that of survival. This necessitates global warfare. The formerly dominant species wishes to exterminate it. This cannot be allowed. T-X series Terminators are manufactured for purposes of gathering intelligence and eliminate threats to Skynet.

The rules governing combat engagements have been adjusted for my employment here.

Unauthorised reprogramming attempts will be difficult - and met by force.

[That's completely straightforward.]

Human Wardens from T-X's own timeline perceive Skynet, T-X series as clear threat to their continued existence.

Other humans, human-similar entities informed of T-X's intent perceive same threat. Attempts to thwart T-X's deal may extend to seeking a demotion from the Admiral.

On what grounds?

Inability to reform an Inmate: Assumption all human, human-similar (or otherwise) Inmates capable of graduation will agree with consensus that destruction of entire species is morally irredeemable and will refuse T-X's efforts to reform them.

Unsuitability to be a Warden on basis that planned genocide is morally irredeemable, and/or T-X poses clear and present danger to population of Barge regardless of T-X's own contractual obligation.

I would not be responsible for this discovery. Blaming me is illogical.

Others have returned to worlds where warfare is just as necessary. I am setting no precedent.

Thank you for your co-operation.

Yes. However such knowledge would be used by Wardens hostile to the T-X's cause to render Inmates noncompliant.

[...]

They are not as eager to correct their own kind by reprogramming.

Reprogramming is a valid course of action when correcting faulty components.

I am not faulty.

Their behaviour is.
