I must say that by now, it is hard to tell what is the truth.

Understandably, since that press release is devoid of any real information. Seems quite reasonable to disregard it. That's one thing that bothers me about security in general, that it's so super political and it's a bit hard to just be interested in the technical aspects of it without being sucked into political bickering to some degree (can't follow Twitter accounts of most security people for that reason). Of cours…

Have any twitter accounts you find worthwhile? I currently follow Troy Hunt and occasionally check some of the people he talks with/retweets, would definitely like to expand that a bit.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It's really kind of hard to harm Russia more than it manages to harm itself. Yes, Hitler did manage to kill more Russians than Stalin did, but you could also lay the blame for at least some of that at Stalin's door, through the purges in the thirties.

> Hitler did manage to kill more Russians than Stalin did It's debatable. Stalin's tactics of "scorched earth" and fighting with human waves may shift the toll.

Yes, I was trying to give Russia at least a little bit of wiggle room there... but honestly, they've done far more damage to themselves than anybody has done to them, pretty much throughout their history.
