There are good Russians. Pussy Riot – a symbol of enduring resistance: not only against Putin, but against every form of authoritarian control over bodies, language, and art. Putin's corrupt regime has branded them "extremist," demonstrating how much they are still perceived as a threat. Here they are fighting against the US company Ubiquiti, which enables Russian war crimes. Ubiquiti radio bridges and network equipment are being used extensively by the Russian army in Ukraine – up to 80% of the observed radio bridges on the Russian side are from Ubiquiti. The equipment is used for communication and drone control. At least nine Russian units accused of war crimes have been identified that use or have received such equipment (via Telegram fundraising appeals, Russian dealers, etc.). Despite US and EU export bans on dual-use technology, the products apparently find their way to Russia through indirect channels. Ubiquiti is not taking sufficient action against this and is profiting from it.

this whole sequence from an episode of kath & kim that first aired in 2002 genuinely makes me proud to be australian (a sentence i VERY rarely say)
