Given that the Russians took down all of Ukraine’s telecoms only to realize that that meant that they couldn’t communicate either, and had to therefore use insecure systems does make me think that perhaps they haven’t thought it through.
@echodot@IrateAnteater I suspect, despite occasional advances, that on the whole they have thought little of it through. And now their, or rather putines, pride won’t let them just say “sorry. We fecked up, just let us back out”
