      1. Something potentially extremely damaging for Putin’s regime is the fact that many Ukrainians speak Russian and have personal ties with Russians It means Russian people can be exposed to what’s going on in Ukraine in a way that Putin cannot control

      Shutting down Facebook and pouring a torrent of lies on state controlled TV is one thing But how can you crack down WhatsApp groups? Telegram channels? Email? Signal messages? SMS, iMessages and Snaps? All at the same time? Much harder task I’d say

    I have no idea how deep this penetration of information (and, let’s be real, propaganda) from Ukraine can go into the Russian’s society Also unclear what would be the political consequences for his regime But it’s an undercurrent we probably shouldn’t discard too quickly
