    So I imagine, with some irony, that she can avoid US courts because Russia doesn't have an extradition agreement. To some extent, it seems like content sharing apps are often Russia based. So evading shutdown in Western nations requires a hostile regime. So free access to Western, public-funded, scientific research relies on Russian networks and jurisdiction often.

    These massive green text attempts started becoming common recently and honestly they’re excruciatingly boring. Misses the entire value of the medium. Very “hello, fellow kids”.

      That’s not a reply, it’s sarcasm by the same poster pretending to speak for the publisher as a joke.
