Locking up someone is not an act of war, per se.
Bur during hostilities locking someone up is a hostile act that means we can shoot. Other times, peacetime, locking someone up isn’t a shoot’em act of war.

Well, of course I bow to your professional knowledge and experience, Sir.   I was never in the real war.

As an Air Force Tech Controller we only skimmed the surface in tech school with the history of electronic warfare and looked from one breakpad to the other with envy and awe at the ECM and ECCM trainees at Kessler. Then got a kick hearing radar maintenance trainees tell the apocryphal stories of blowing up police radars operating on a hillside highway close to a base. And out in the fixed facilities we experienced the counters, howlers and sweepers interfering with our communications. LOL That was all forty five years ago.
