Irrelevant and not even remotely close to what I asked for. This is a story about Tucker Carlson sympathizing with Putin. It is not a story explaining the reason why Russia felt it was necessary to conduct special military action in the Ukr

RT isn’t a western media organization. I would be shocked if you could find just one actual major mainstream western media organization that tells the other side of the story.

You could always marry a foreign National to gain citizenship in that country. The going rate for a US sham marriage is about $60k.

What you’re saying is absurd. It was 1 man who did those things, not “Russia, the country, as a whole”. I just try to imagine how I would feel if suddenly my life was devestated by foreign nations all because our president made a bad decisi

The change will occur within much faster if Russians have a safe and secure means to communicate with the outside world. It sounds more like you (and others who support sanctions) are more interested in making Russians suffer as some sort o

I support free speech and access to a free, open, and uncensored internet for everyone on this planet and I wont discriminate based on nationality.

You can provision VPN servers on your computers and give them out to Russian nationals for free.

Ask HN: Would providing Russians with free VPN be more effective than sanctions?

How are sanctions going to make anybody more informed? They dont…That makes no sense. Instead of sanctions, a more effective strategy would be to provide Russians with free VPNs so that they can access western news media.

Could I (US citizen) get in trouble for providing free VPNs to Russian nationals? Would these Russians get in trouble for using my US based VPN? I want to support Russians during this difficult time but I don’t want them to get in trouble.

It’s pretty gross that they won’t admit they made a mistake and instead choose to mislead the public using deceptive language.

Blame the state governments for publishing those records in the first place. Everyone knows that once information is published on the internet there is really no “undo” button. If judyrecords goes down another, perhaps less scrupulous, ope

It wasn’t a breach. Those records were publicly available. It’s a shame the site’s operator complied with the takedown request. Unfortunately that’s what happens when you use a US hosting provider and domain. In the interest of transparency

I don’t think the US is a good place to live or to work. In fact I’ve been miserable ever since living here. It’s a depressing place with no semblance of justice. I can’t say that I wouldn’t support a regime change here.

This should be redone in WebGL1 and WASM to be system independent and working on all devices including iOS and Mac.

Welcome to the post-truth world, where even posting a simple true statement “he is a male”, “she is a female”, is enough to warrant a ban.

Good. Anyone with a RTL-SDR and a copy of software available for free on GitHub can snoop on the SMS messages sent over 4g within close physical proximity. And for the rest, can be obtained with a little bit of background knowledge into law

Even if it were proven that this was indeed true, the proof would certainly not be allowed to reach mainstream audiences. The author would be discredited, face character assassination (and sometimes physical assassination), and/or blac

by 5ESS 5y ago
We’re getting off topic here. This isn’t Apple’s fault and has nothing to do with them. No one is forced to use Apple products because alternatives DO exist, so they are NOT a monopoly, and therefore antitrust laws should NOT apply to them.
