#Russia

@hanse_mina IMHO #Russia should facea total #blockade incl. #SeaBlockade and be forced into #ConditionlessSurrender cuz with their unreleting invasion since 2022 they forfeilted any right to go back to a #StatusQuoAnteBellum (even tho I'd understand #Ukraine not wanting that since 2012 as Russa has been #ConsequenceFree-violating the #BudapestMemorandum since then...
@kkarhan @hanse_mina I don't understand why we let them connect to the internet. Make it a crime for any carrier to let a packet that's been in Russia into their network. Would help stop the disinformation etc and I'm not sure we would lose much of value.

@jetsoft @hanse_mina #Funfact, i worked at several firms where #Geoblocking #Russia alongside "P.R." #China and #NorthKorea was part of their #ITsec protocol simply because otherwise they'd constantly get #DDoS'd or face hacking attempts.

@jetsoft @hanse_mina as for disinfo campaigns I think #PressFreedom for their #Journalists should be a #mutualistic thing.
