I have an article on this topic from last year.
Highlights
•Active SETI assumes that alien languages can be translated without context or meaningful interaction.
•According to prominent theories in the philosophy of language it is impossible to translate without context or interaction.
•The impossibility of communication between humanity and an ETI has important game-theoretical consequences.
•The failure of communication cause a “Hobbesian Trap”, where players are drawn to a risk-dominant equilibrium.
•In light of this, advertising our location to ETI is reckless.
