Laundering of CC/Trial Accounts/Enterprise LLM inference is already a HUGE market, leveraged in part for distillation attacks on western AI.

A whole country’s worth of accounts just got access to a service we know is being laundered en masse and is also the same tech currently propping up many economies at the moment.

That same country is known for laundering other forms of liquidity. This is par for the course, not propaganda. And it’s going to be a huge problem by November.

Funny how some people here mistake criticism for propaganda...

The overt hatred people here feel for Russians would make an antisemite blush. This is on the same level as calling random people Schlomo.

Hay, my nickname means “Russian”. And my real country of origin - Hungary was also not ideal until recently. I’ve heard a single instance in the past 40 years, that any of these caused any hatred showed up. And it didn’t even happen to me.

It’s nowhere near what my brother got because he has a darker complexion, and looks like a stereotypical Arab from far away.

So, are you sure that this hatred against the common folks?

I think you are mistaking hatred toward the Kremlin for hatred toward the Russian people.

Please explain how calling random people stereotypical Russian names specifically represents hatred toward the Kremlin and not Russians in general.

It’s only acceptable to make fun of countries like France or Britain etc. rather than developmentally challenged ones like Russia..

> but what about Jews

Seriously? Is all that you’ve got?

Don’t want the hatred? Stop the biggest war in Europe since WW2, stop racketeering on a region level, stop acting victimized when there’s no one else to blame for your own actions and start finally working with other countries to build strong partnerships.

I don't understand why you are being downvoted. If someone starts calling people Avi Goldstein in a thread about Israel I’m sure he'll get flagged to death in no time.

It’s a double standard, because riskies weren’t oppressed like Jews. So quit acting like a victim.
