> The only difference here is that they were able to build an app to do all the tracking in plain sight. I'm sure governments in the US and Europe would love to be able to force all visitors to install a similar app.

Yet, we do not because unlike in Qatar, the UAE and other religious dictatorships, we are a democracy and we have the ability to change our government.

You can do better than whatbouatism.

Win, lose or draw, we Ukrainians will be hunting down russian war criminals for the next century, just like the Simon Wiesenthal center did. The animosity towards russians in Ukraine, and abroad is growing exponentially.

Combine this with the sheer amount of identifying data that the modern age is giving us on russian "soldiers" and their collaborators, we will have our work cut out for us.

Expect several decades of daily assassinations, retributory attacks and arrests.

As a retired sysadmin with 30 years experience, I can tell you with a good amount of certainty that nobody will care if they aren't already sysadmins. It is viewed as entirely unimportant to understand these things, and the only thing you need to get a job is good whiteboard/leet coding skills.

The world changed.

These shock jock articles are boring.

Step 1: Write an incendiary title Step 2: Make definitive statements meant to be applied broadly but actually targeted at a specific situation that the author is experiencing, or comes from the author's own problems with something. Step 3: Make sure to cast doubt and insecurity, making somebody else feel like they made the wrong choice, even when everything is working perfectly Step 4: Street cred improved!
