    reactionary nonsense just as it was when trump did it.

    especially considering eugene has no love for the kgb.

      The only thing that would worry me is that he doesn’t have to love the FSB (used to be KGB), he just has to love not being thrown out of a window enough to comply with whatever they may wish, like oh say a Russian state owned Trojan not being detected by it or something. Not that they’re definitely doing that, but the possibility isn’t 0%.

      I mean it’s basically the same reason I don’t trust much of the US based proprietary software, just %s/FSB/CIA/g, the only real reason to trust one over the other is if you trust either agency more than the other IMO, otherwise distrust both.

      That may be a weird way to say he has lots of love for SVR (external intelligence service) or police K department, but not FSB.

      Like that conversation in the “Sneakers” movie about FBI, CIA and NSA.
