Putin has signed new laws that will decimate online anonymity by denying access to online services pending state-approved user ID checks.

Nah the head honcho is a big fan of ol’ Puuts

What are you basing this on? At the start of the war he was challenging Putin for a MMA match and he lets Ukrainians use Starlink. Am I missing something?

Starlink has already cut access to front line Ukrainians before, forcing them to hold off on advancing due to lack of communication.

Starlink has benefitted immensely from the war, so it’s not a purely humanitarian desire to help Ukrainians. Free publicity and a guaranteed market share when only a handful of people ever even heard of Starlink is what they were after, IMO.

forcing them to hold off on advancing due to lack of communication

That’s not why. They were stretching the Russian defences and resources and now have launched their main attack. In any case, Russia can jam starlink. It’s not some wunderwaffe.

This still leaves my question unaswered. What has he done to indicate that he’s pro-Putin? I’m genuinely asking.
