How's this different from NTLite, and does anyone know how this plays along with the ability to update your system?
If so, it's a weird prank. Where's the punchline?
I'm not sure why Java would be an easier path than C#, the next paragraph is a little weird to read - Native app We did not take the easy path of writing our app in Java or a web-based Java-script heavy framework. Using C# and .NET allows us to craft an experience that minimizes resource use and is very fast.

Whole thing screams scam or April Fools joke. There's one commit to the source code repository. Anyone want to try it on a VM and report back?
Playbook files are password protected archives. Anyone cares to reverse engineer the password from the executable?

"Security patches are not available for AME, as this subsystem has been disabled. In order to secure the system properly, we revoke administrator privileges from all normal users, and activate the hidden administrator account. This will mediate approximately 75% of the critical attack surface, while locking down the system from most foreseeable major future threats." https://docs.ameliorated.io/common-questions/the-c…
Since you can do the same thing on a normal system, by what % is AME less safe vs a patched Windows?

If you care not to report your usage to Microsoft or any agency that Microsoft would need to release data to this is 100% 'secure'.
Security has become the main argument for unwanted ongoing spying and patronising by OS vendors. Look at Google play services and/or safety net. It is like trust us or we render your system unusable it insecure. This amounts to blackmailing IMHO and regulators need to step in.
