FWIW this was conceived of and started back in like 2009.

They saw the need 5 years before Crimea.

The appeasement of Putin has been going on for a long fucking time.

if only my country could just disconnect from russian trollfarms like that.

[–] Badeendje@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago

Yup. But they would just start troll farms in other countries.

Maybe you already on to something there let's get some cattle prods and do something experiments πŸ˜‹

It's funny to me that this whole time there was a "disconnect from Russian network" button. When I first read this news I assumed they'd have to manually disconnect the cables.

The thing is that if you "just stop it" like that, it would wreck havoc, you can't just pull the plug without damaging the rest of the infrastructure.

Cool that they figured out where to get energy from so that they could stop funding russia!

All three Baltic nations had already stopped/trivialise purchasing Russian electricity. This was the final step (I don't think that they are going to destroy the infra.)

🀘Fuck yeah, Eesti!🀘 Been a long time since the first time I visited there, with that shitty rubble as the currency, and less so when it was the coolass Eesti Kroon. Glad to see you telling the fuckers to go fuck themselves, alongside Latvija and Lietuva! Eesti igavesti!
