Anonymous hackers
Apparently they've been busy doing things like hacking the Tass news agency website, etc to make Russians aware they are at war with Ukraine. I'm not really sure if it's that helpful; aren't Liz Truss et al doing enough to annoy Putin? But I suppose it might keep Putin's geeks busy fixing things rather than hacking Ukraine and western targets. However, this one was interesting - the hacking of Putin's yacht and it's destination - as I saw a demo by Ken Munro (of PenTestPartners and occasionally BBC Click) at infosec a couple of years ago showing how insecure many merchant navy navigational aids are. Worrying that these issues still exist and if Anonymous can do this to Putin's yacht what can the Fancy Bears do to western cargo ships?https://www.unilad.co.uk/news/anonymous-trolls-rename-putins-73-million-yacht-and-send-it-to-hell-20220228(I'm working on the basis that I know this is possible the report is probably true.)
