Interesting that supporters of the currency of freedom and the future rush in to flutter their eyelashes at any oligarch and dictator that looks their way from across the bar.
[edit] Well if Vladdy-P - 16 year veteran of the KGB - is doing it then I guess I must have been wrong this whole time. Thank you for setting me straight. WAGMI.

I maintain he doesn't support the espoused goals of advocates. > Criminals usually lead technology adoption, as they don't have any moral or legal constaints, real or imagined. That doesn't mean it's for the better, though, haha. Just pointing at the times that it did would be a form of survivorship bias. Criminals were quick to adopt fentanyl, human trafficking, and shooting your business rivals after all. Let's face it, Putin's goal is to harm the west. So you could say his adoption of this technology is likely to undermine the west. Whether that's directly through the adoption of the technology or the perception it creates.
