  I'm really curious how the Russian middle class - the "too rich and influential to go to war, but not rich or influential enough to be a self sustaining oligarch" class - will react to when their Yandex smart home or AI, VK, etc. becomes unusable because Putin demands all data centers to provide capacity to the military... Will there be another round of those sob videos like when they did the whole "those evil Ukrainians blew up our warehouses and ruined our businesses/lives when we didn't even do anything to them" spiel?

    Sounds like you already know how those sobs will respond. Pun intended.
