This sounds like the opening act of a cold war era political struggle. War by proxy, etc.&lt;p&gt;Can we please not repeat that chapter in history?&lt;p&gt;Or, if we&amp;#x27;re going to do so, at least not use hackers as the pawns in this sick game? I&amp;#x27;d appreciate at least that much.</text></comment>
