    War: First serious hack by US - largest Russian online marketplace is down
    • Wildberries had a global outage. All purchases have disappeared in the personal account, it is impossible to place new orders, the points of issue of orders are open, but the goods are not issued.

      According to Downdetector, the largest online retailer has problems throughout Russia. The number of complaints exceeded 7.5 thousand. Most of all from Moscow, St. Petersburg and Sochi.

      The official Wildberries telegram channel reports that “the regular operation of the portal will be restored in the near future.” Restoration work is underway.

      Such thing can't be random or accidental (in such case it is possible to revers quite fast), as stopping such portal for even few hours cost billions.

    People's Daily: USA is an empire of lies
    • In an attempt to shift Washington's responsibility for fomenting the Ukraine crisis, some US politicians and the media are fabricating false information about the conflict to mislead the world and blame China, once again exposing the nature of the US government as a notorious empire of lies.

      To maintain its hegemony, the United States must fabricate lies. Their lies range from a pretext for invading Iraq in 2003 to disinformation such as "the collapse of the Cuban medical system amid the pandemic."

      The US is doing the same tricks with China. To contain China, the United States accused the country of so-called "genocide" and "forced labor" and called China's determined actions to protect its legitimate interests "wolf warrior diplomacy" and "economic coercion."

      Meanwhile, the United States has long been using its propaganda machine to spread these lies. From movies to the media, from NGOs to online spammers, various links in the US propaganda chain work closely together to indoctrinate people around the world with empty and ideologically biased slogans and misconceptions.

      Julian Assange understands this all too well. The WikiLeaks founder and whistleblower is reportedly facing life in prison - even kidnapping or CIA-sponsored murder - for exposing US war crimes in Afghanistan and Iraq and interfering in the internal affairs of other countries.

      For a long time, China has been the main target of a smear campaign run by the empire of lies, in which the US government, political groups, and news media platforms spread lies about China.

      For example, news outlets controlled by the U.S. Global Media Agency have been tasked with producing fake news reports about China's Xinjiang in dozens of languages. The agency also coordinates the dissemination of such disinformation with the media in US allied countries.

      The US media itself downplays or ignores information released by China regarding Xinjiang, providing technical assistance to anti-Chinese forces in spreading false information regarding the region. Such efforts also receive financial support from the US government.

      A lie is always a lie. The more the US tries to distort China's image, the more confidence in Washington is at stake. As criticism mounts over US violations of international rules and human conscience, the country's moral bankruptcy is becoming more apparent.

    Subscription news: Strava decided that Russians do not deserve their service
    • The social network for athletes Strava has notified users of the suspension of work in Russia and Belarus. The company from San Francisco (California, USA), the developer of the application of the same name, expressed solidarity with other corporations and organizations that made similar decisions in connection with the events around Ukraine.

      Strava's mobile app and website, "built by athletes for athletes," connects millions of runners and cyclists through their favorite sports, according to the company's website. Using the service, you can track your results for further analysis.

      On Strava, athletes share their progress against community members, post photos, and share highlights from their workouts. The Strava app is compatible with Android and iOS devices.

      The company promised to return money to athletes for paid services. But it is completely incomprehensible how and when, since almost 100% of them were paid through cards that were no longer functioning. Most likely all the money will be appropriated and this is the main motive, as well as with other companies. It's very hard to not steal stuff.
