State actors
- fixxer 10y agoI think that is likely the case, but I don't know if that is an exclusive thing anymore. A lot of what I read about reminds me of 1970s sponsorship of various terror entities and revolutionaries.
- walrus01 10y agoFrom a nation state actor standpoint it is probably a lot cheaper to pay gobs of money to a half-dozen antisocial young black hat types (that have been messing around with linux since age 12 in their bedroom in belarus), than to fund the PLO.
- fixxer 10y agoYep, and if you look at the carders in Russia, they have some very close ties with government. Perfect infrastructure for this shit.
