Yeah. Russia crosses many lines but stealing credit cards is NOT one of them /s
Edit: Null User was right. But just the be sure I'll edit in the /s
What do you mean? They steal basically everything they can when destroying cities and killing people. Should I mention it's a crime to make it more obvious?
Pretty sure the person you're responding to didn't think a /s was necessary, seeing how obvious the sarcasm was.
I don't get such a sarcasm. It doesn't target any specific point in my arguments, they are about how Starlink could locate the illegal use of devices, not about how justified or not Russian crimes are.
Are you being intellectually dishonest or are you actually missing the point?
I seriously can't tell.
For reference, Russian hackers 'steal everything' and have agents in every country. Using a stolen UA credit card to purchase access to spacex sattelites and then insuring the direct operator(s) stay in UA as an intel relay is not difficult.
