It is unfortunate to see Russia turn from a gray actor to a rogue state within a fortnight. Real loss is of course borne by people.

They've always been like this. It's just that now they are promoting this behavior for the masses.

They never prosecute international cybercrime and they've built a reputation for bulletproof hosting and botnet-for-hire services. It seems to me that cybercrime is going from being something that Russia could have prosecuted but never chose to into state sponsored things that are actively promoted.
