Welp, their threat doesn't affect me. I have no care for that barbaric country.
Besides, I've blocked everything geo-labelled as Russia anyway, it makes for much easier firewall logs. Honestly "the West" as russians say, should flat out block the entire country to our internet.
This would stop a lot of hacking and exploiting, and they're basically dictating everything to their people at this point, so let them just become a new N.Korea.
They want our tech, they don't want to co-op or collab with the West and everything they have/do is inferior. Cut them off at the neck.
(Im biased, my mother's parents were Polish and Ukraine, and I've been to both places many times and russia is an arsehat in general)
But you'd also be giving their governments total control of all information, to the detriment of citizens and any possible organized resistance.
