Not sure why this is news? Ukraine reported this first month of war with Russia, that Russians getting coordinates of Ukrainian DJI drone pilots using this method.
Here is video that was done by biggest distributor of dji drones in Ukraine about what happened and that China helped russians to track ukrainian dji drones - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=706sOiEEVkY
Enough is enough for Russia and customers from there. This is just a beginning, You and your Hitler=Putin started WW3 in Ukraine. Your leader is telling the world that he is ready to nuke Ukraine or any NATo country or US if someone will try to do anything to him or help save people in ukraine that your soldiers are killing. So yea, if businesses and society won't step in and stop sponsoring Russia which is killing and bombing people, so any business that don't want to touch bloody money, they should stop providing all services to Russia. Feel the pain for not doing anything with your Hitler with nukes and causing a war in europe.
FYI, the policy to delete logs, just deletes them from your aws account, but they are still accessable/recoverable from aws side if needed. So this guy, that worked as cloud lead in ubiquiti was stupid enough to think it will hide his traces by deleting logs :DD it might have worked if he deleted them in bare metal server itself,but in aws it just deletes from account/s3, but can be recovered by AWS support. so this is how they got all the logs and found that it was him that logged in with his own aws user, and ip address from surfshark.
We are living in crazy times, where russians showing a big fuck to all of us breaking all laws, using chemical weapons, hacking, killing, occupying other countries. Capitalism for the win, money rules the world, and Russians know where to invest them to keep everyone in their pockets all over the world. We have biggest Mafia state in the world inside the Europe and everyone is just fine with it. Sad..
What you dont get it, is that russia is a terrorist state with a lot of money and nuclear bombs. They bomb their own people even, and don;'t give a shit about them. Their FSB (KGB) killed opposition party leader, ambassadors, journalists... It's biggest MAFIA in the world and you are saying that common sense should work here and it would be a death note for yourself if you will attack with chemical weapons,. But there is no common sense, they are terrorists and they dont give a shit. The biggest problem with western people, that they can't even understand how that would be possible, so you start thinking and logically that no, they can't do that. But they can, they are different how western people think or see things. That's the biggest weapon of russia, that West just won't get it and they can do whatever they want, everyone is either afraid or just think we still might be friends, or better be friends, because it's useful since they have lots of money. If you want to survive in this world having dictators like Putin, Assad, Lukashenka, Kim Jong-Un, you not just sit and express your concerns like Obama did about what happened, but you act and punch back. They understand only power and actions. If you sit doing nothing it means green light, i can do it. Look what Russia did, when everyone was just raising concerns about what Russia is doing in Crimea and Ukraine, They took Syria too, and started bombing children and Syria people. No one gives a shit and everyone is just concerned. Dictators will stop when you will punch back hard into their face, that's what they understand and only then you can negotiate.
