It doesn't surprise me. I've never tried it, but from all that I've read, their privacy features aren't as good as they pretend.

> From the start of the war, a military airfield and village just outside Kherson city achieved legendary status in Ukraine. Captured by Russian forces within days of Russia's full-scale invasion in February, Chornobaivka was then repeatedly attacked by Ukrainian forces.

#Ukraine: drone drops a grenade on a hole filled with #Russia soldiers; the soldiers barely react. Speculation is that they are suffering hypothermia due to lack of food, warm clothing, etc.

One of the implications of a likely Republican surge in Congress is that many of them appear to be putinoid bootlickers who will be more likely to balk at continuing to supply weapons, training, and economic assistance to #Ukraine as it struggles to dislodge the invaders from #Russia.
As anyone who has thought about the past few decades of Russian invasions should notice, the only way to be sure this doesn't recur is to defeat them so soundly that it spurs internal political change.
This happened when #Afghanistan militias, armed with US-supplied weapons, sent the USSR scurrying home with its tail between its legs.
If we stay the course, Russia may be transformed into a good citizen on the world stage.

More rumors about #Putin's health.
While the rumors might provide an explanation for the timing of going from a smoldering proxy war in the #Donbass to attempting to extinguish #Ukraine's independent statehood, one can look back and see that some of the ideas that led this way were already prominent in 2014 and possibly earlier. One can also see that even if #Russia's leader was to pass away from a fatal disease, the war would likely continue, because the ideas and circumstances leading in that direction would still be widespread among national leadership as well as the nation's people themselves.
