Microsoft disrupts Russian cyberattack on US, Ukraine, EU targets

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Microsoft said on Thursday it had disrupted hacking attempts by Russian military spies aimed at breaking into Ukrainian, European Union, and American targets.

In a blog post, the tech firm said a group it nicknamed "Strontium" was using seven internet domains as part of an effort to spy on government bodies and think tanks in the EU and the United States, as well as Ukrainian institutions such as media organizations.

Microsoft did not identify any of the targets by name.

Strontium is Microsoft's moniker for a group others often call Fancy Bear or APT28 - a hacking squad linked to Russia's military intelligence agency.

3. Can we not just disconnect Russia from the Internet?

I mean really, can't we do that? They can have their own in-country internet, I suppose, but why does the rest of the world have to put up with them?
