Dissent responded harshly to these accusations, firmly rejecting any insinuation of collusion with criminal groups. The journalist pointed out that every time she asks for evidence to support certain claims, she is labeled โ€œcriminal-friendlyโ€ or accused of being a mouthpiece for cybercriminals, simply for refusing to uncritically accept statements lacking public verification.
