    Wouldn’t it collapse their economy? Like how many Russians are digital sex workers selling content to the rest of the world? And doesn’t a shitton of money flow into Russia via ransomware

      I think those will move somewhere with Internet connectivity.

      Are there even any payment processors they can use for that? I remember it being an issue when the sanctions hit.

        All that this person ever sees Russians do is be a digital sex worker. Surely that means it must represents most of their economy, right? What else can we believe but our eyes? The internet cables connecting the west and Russia must then be like the Nordstream projects, we’ve been manoeuvred into a situation of terrible dependence on this Russian natural resource. How will we ever escape from it?
