Instead of overtly strategic hacking, isn't the more likely scenario a green light being given to Russian-NSO types to ransom and thieve to their hearts' content?

Not NSO types but regular criminal groups. They already have access to many US orgs just not enough personell to do the hands on keyboard hacking (as opposed to malware).

They will do a ton of hacking but it's not like them to do it just for the sake if making noise. They will posture and distract but at any scale thry will have a strategic objective.

Be worried about everyone else that is expecting you to waste efforts worrying about russians when you don't have to. What immature teams do is setup too much monitoring, geo block russia,etc... introducing a false sense if security and alert fatigue at the same time.

If you haven't already, work on good detections for lateral movement, ransomware and wipers. If you have, just another tuesday.
