International Criminal Court (ICC) investigating alleged Russian cyberattacks on Ukrainian civilian infrastructure as possible war crimes, sources say...
Sorry but trying to prosecute Russian hackers seems like a total waste of time. It's extremely hard to prove who hacked and Russia doesn't give a shit about the ICC. On top of that I would think there is much more dramatic case to prosecute than that.
The man, identified only as Thomas H, had been a captain in the army's procurement office when he contacted Russian embassy in Berlin and passed on secret military information....
Meh. It's a 54 years old officer. Not some youngster who fucked up his life by diving in a shallow pool.
He may very well have endangered the lives of many people.
I usually don't like that argument as it is very conditional but in this case he wasn't denouncing something or trying to be a whistleblower. He straight up tried to make an enemy army more effective at killing Ukrainians (and Germans to some extent ) because he was afraid of their nuclear weapons.
He got off easy. We don't know what documents exactly he leaked but stuff about training/weapons can really change a war. You might pass it as things they already knew but what if they didn't ?
Ads in the street, on TV, on the radio, in magazines, on the internet, in games (including in VR)...
It's a nightmare it will be completely impossible to go through one minute of your life without being sold something.
It's not really something new but it saddens me because gaming was one of the few space that was mostly spared by advertisers.
One of the last place you could get out of your reality for a little while.
Now this is over. Just like Netflix people will go up in arms against ads and then still get Free2Play games showing ads and normalize that practice.
Around 90% of the revenues generated from Russian frozen assets should be spent on arms purchases for Ukraine, Chancellor Olaf Scholz said on Monday, supporting an earlier EU proposal to use Russian assets' interest payments to boost Ukraine defence....
I was more thinking of investing the money on the markets like your bank does with the money in your bank account.
It's never just money sitting in an account, it's an opportunity for some banker to invest money they don't own to get richer themselves.
Honestly think it's almost impossible this money will be returned.
You wouldn't seize that much money to return it years later. It would be essentially an admission of guilt to return it. Nothing to win there politically.
The only scenario where the money could be returned would be if Russia somehow won this war and managed to patch things up with the EU. Very unlikely.
