There have been quite a few comics in this style recently. For this specific comic, the background is always changing.
China has the luxury of being a totalitarian state. Xi does not need to worry about upcoming elections. Unfortunately in Europe any moves that requires great sacrifice might be political suicide.
Maltese/🇲🇹 is incorrect, should be "Ixtri Ewropej".
I am assuming undetectable waves. That is the enemy won't know where the waves are being fired from or even that they are being fired at all.
Yes but they need to obey Turkish law if they want to offer their services there. Like how US websites have to show a "cookies" disclaimer within the EU due to EU privacy laws.
Eh as much as I would like it to be true, I would take the word of captured enemy combatants with a grain of salt.
Well as a company bluesky, would need to abide by the laws of where it is offering it's services.
They can't just ignore the request of the country's government. They could either challenge it in court or stop offering their services altogether.
To be fair I don't think the russians would conceive of such a plan. Anyone who would suggest it would have been laughed out of the room.
Question would be how to track sales of said data outside of Italy.
I think they hate "the west" in general as the population can criticize and pressure those in power. Whereas dictatorships have unquestioned control.
In this case they should have been using government systems for internal transparency and opsec.
I think it will start out innocent at first but if a post reaches enough likes, it will open the floodgates for meme spam.
