Cyber Warfare in Ukraine

 Article on Cyber Warfare 

Demoralizing the Russian people is totally ๐Ÿ’ฏ possible. Attack the electrical grid, gas and oil pipelines, communication networks (including military). 

It’s a lot easier to hack a bank ๐Ÿฆ if you’re not actually trying to steal anything (99% of it is getting the falsified funds out, and securely — see the movie Ghost ๐Ÿ‘ป for example). 

The disinformation side is interesting. One campaign they’re already doing is uploading information about Russian casualties, including pictures. Imagine if Anonymous could get ahold of lists of Russian soldiers deployed here and there, maybe with pictures, and post that large numbers of them had been killed or seriously wounded. The Russian people would go nuts ๐Ÿฅœ, especially since the Russian government always tried to hide these numbers. 

A standard part of the Swiss ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ญ public defense tactic is to repeatedly announce ๐Ÿ“ฃ “any messages that the government of Switzerland ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ญ has surrendered should be treated as LIES. Keep fighting. Switzerland ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ญ will never give up.” The obvious takeaway is that undermining public and military morale by propaganda that the government or general staff have lost heart ๐Ÿ’œ is standard tactic. 

*** Two generals are lost so far

“Lost” as in died or as in dropped out?

With modern sound and video editing technology one could create a flurry of videos in which Putin made surrender-sounding messages, or bat ๐Ÿฆ‡ shit ๐Ÿ’ฉ crazy speeches. The Japanese have already done this. 

*** Hmmm lead to WW III ?

It depends on how you define it. Nuclear could conflict probably counts. We already have all of Europe ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ, the USA ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ , Canada ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Ukraine ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Russia ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ half the republics of the former Soviet Union involved. China ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ may get in, or start their own thing (like Japan ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต did in WWII). Who knows? if things get nuclear, India ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ may decide to invade Pakistan ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฐ and then China ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ might decide to get in on that. 

In the 1980s, WWIII was described as a “come as you are war.” ๐Ÿ‘” ๐Ÿ‘– ๐Ÿ‘ž ๐Ÿ‘  ๐Ÿ‘— Each belligerent would bring what ๐Ÿš€ weapons ✈️ and preparedness they had, with no revving up of their war machines as in the first two world ๐ŸŒŽ wars.
