  Excellent way to get the datacenters onto a valid military target list. Good job, Putin!

    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.

    While everyone I disagree with is also a boogeyman run by foreigners, one perhaps might stretch so far as to concede that state governments often have legitimate need of computers

      It’s been wild watching the last ten years of mass psychosis over Russian hacking/bots. Prigozhin made a facebook group that got 500 likes in 2016 and that’s somehow justified years of relentless headlines that have turned the majority of liberals into BlueAnon cultists. And of course the only objective studies that can be found show the dynamic is inverted from the propaganda’s portrayal.

      Honestly man, you guys act way more like predictive text models than anyone you accuse. Even this reply is so cringe-inducingly automatic and vapid.

  Yes, yesss, hobble your tech edge and assume it won’t have volatile consequences. Genius. I’m all for it, Pooty. 🤌🏼
