Russian "Hybrid Attacks" Are Typically Microsoft TCO and/or Windows TCO (Total Cost of Ownership)

The media will not say this, so we will. When they tell us about "hybrid attacks" they typically speak of cyberattacks, but not always.

What are the rest?

Let us count "the ways" (to wage so-called 'hybrid attacks'):

1. firebombing mail or post offices
2. blowing up train stations
3. disrupting airports
4. doing the above under the guise of "contraband"
5. signal interference/interception, e.g. GPS
6. sending immigrants across borders to drown out the system
7. leaking information (attained not by leakers but cyberattacks, which result in extensive, almost limitless data breaches)
8. trying to brainwash or incite people online, e.g. via social control media or low-quality slopfarms in high quantity

There are other examples, but that ought to suffice for the sake of making a point, an argument that sticks.

An associate had noted the following, which overlap some of the above:

1. social media disinformation, propaganda, and influence campaigns
2. state sponsored ransomware breaches
3. cutting telecommunications cables
4. use of front groups/parties
5. targeted assassinations abroad

It has long been a verified fact that Microsoft leaves back or bug doors in tact. For the fake of "national security" it insists on flawed (or fake) security.

So let's put the above in perspective.

Information-related warfare relies a lot on computer systems. Those that use Microsoft software systems are broken by design; Russians (or North Koreans or Iranians or any other "classic" adversary) can get in, then break stuff or take data for espionage purposes.

Physical presence of cops or troops (and persistent intelligence activities) can help prevent many of the above and arrest the culprits, who are nearby. That stops repetition. Catching the people who exploit Microsoft products (remotely) is a lot harder. Prosecuting them requires extradition. So they keep doing more and more damage.

To repeat what we published hours ago, "GAFAM is a Financial Problem and Sovereignty Risk, a Policy-Level (National Level) Boycott is Needed".

You know who would oppose such a boycott? Russia. And even Russia has a bad taste in technology. █
