🧵 Drone strikes on Yandex data centers disrupted services across Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Armenia, and Serbia. Serbia hosts Yandex's largest international office and engineering hub outside of Russia, with 1500-2000 employees. ⬇️
The Yandex datacenter in Vladimir received drone sanctions, and is currently being migrated to the cloud.
According to the Yandex status board, all Yandex services are completely unavailable in Russia.
Maybe targeting our datacenters was a bad idea. Enjoy your digital detox.📵

MEPs say 🇪🇺President von der Leyen has again capitulated to Trump - agreeing to hand over Europeans' private data to US authorities for visitor visas.

This is correct. The EPP is rolling back climate progress as we face a historic heat wave, undermining tech sovereignty through the Digital Omnibus, pushing far right positions on immigration, and seeking to eliminate encryption protections as authoritarianism rises.
