> I wasn't aware of a Russia connection until this post.

I'm still not aware of it after reading the post. Pointing out that some of the people on the project were members of a hackerspace in Moscow at some point in the past is not remotely sufficient to substantiate that there exists any current connection between the project and Putin's regime.



You refer to the post, but did you read the PDF linked to it? There's a conclusion section that's easy to digest.

As far as a connection to Putin's regime, you should read up the thread and note that nobody here mentioned that. Regardless of their supposed affiliations or lack thereof, I'm not interested in sending money to the Russian economy by purchasing a product from a Russian company. It's that simple. I think others would want to know that same information so thanks to pnw for mentioning it.


You mean like the CEO does work for FSB lives in Moscow supports the Russian war effort and built a service to silence Putin's opposition is not enough? We need to get him shaking hands with someone or cashing a check from FSB for services?

Stop trolling.
