Vladimir Putin's Victory Day speech was described as a "professional performance" that did not show the "potential strangeness" that Western officials have recently been concerned about. (Reuters) It wasn't immediately clear how the hacker's slogan would appear on the Russian screen. Interfax said it also appeared on cable television. The Russian news website also contained deeply critical anti-war material on Putin. It's not yet clear what the negative article will look like, but it was quickly removed.

I just didn’t expect him to be so very publicly and obviously wrong! I am not a lawyer, but even...
