snip-"Nestlé also stated that it would not import Nespresso or other products into Russia, with the exception of baby formula, cereal, and therapeutic pet foods.

Nestlé has defended its decision to remain in Russia by claiming that it will not profit from its operations there, as Ukraine increases pressure on the world’s largest food company to leave as the war escalates and casualties’ mount."

snip-"Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal said...,

Paying taxes to the budget of a terrorist country means killing defenseless children & mothers. I hope Nestle changes its mind soon.”

Rmoney didn't even have a concession speech prepared because KKKarl assured him it was a "done deal."

I was here and I seem to remember the opposite. Why I bet the word FBI was used a dozen times at least. Going after a state run TV or website is one thing, hacking companies seems a bridge to far to me. So the next time someone hacks a company you use, or a discussion board perhaps, think about what you're cheering about.

That homophobic video was kind of a dead giveaway to the origin.

I also used the old Dalnet IRC network. It was mostly obliterated by DDoS attacks that lasted weeks.

However, I do reserve the right to a little schadedfreude when some pig gets his/hers/theirs.

Offhand, I'd say most of the Anonymous hackers active against Russia are in Eastern Europe, people here general wouldn't know where to start. Also, the hack of unsecured printers to print out news stories was pure genius. I just hope the stories were in Russian so they'd get read.

Nestle is an $86 billion dollar company based in Switzerland.
Kraft is a $26 billion company based around 80 miles north of our house. They're in Chicago.
I've known several food chemists that worked at the R&D center in Glenview. Supposed to be a good company to work for.

Snip-"Volodymyr Zelensky is calling out Nestlé for the Swiss company's continued relationship with Russia.

"'Good food. Good life.' This is the slogan of Nestlé. Your company that refuses to leave Russia," Zelensky said Saturday during an address to the people of Switzerland. "Even now — when there are threats from Russia to other European countries. Not only to us. When there is even nuclear blackmail from Russia."

Nestlé (NSRGF), the world's largest food-and-beverage company and the maker of Gerber, KitKat and Dreyer's ice cream, defended itself by pointing out that it has made sweeping changes since Russia invaded Ukraine.

Corporate data is saved on server arrays.
Geez, our company was only a little more than $4 billion in revenue and the data servers were in their own room, bigger than my lab & office combined.
Nestles is 20x the size.
I thought that was awfully small for a hack. My laptop has a 300 gig drive!
