Declaring Meta a terrorist organisation is a rare win for Russia.
Yeah but it's a little bit like finding out that the Taliban banned Opium production: the reason they're doing it is because they want the price to shoot up and they wanna move the country onto making Meth.
Doesn't work, though. Every other business in Russia is still asking for WA for contact. I've been using extremist excuse for the past year as for why I'm not in it, because I can't be too arsed to explain that I'm not using an aggressively proprietary phone-only garbage from a privacy-violating corporation. They're still asking, even after the recent ban. Honestly, I should just straight up report them to the police at this point.
