Given all the political posturing, hacktivism, war hacking, as a result of the war in Ukraine, there is suddenly a great deal of uncertainty in the digital and economic infrastructure if our world.

While I applaud some degree of non-military pressure to help end the war, I think there should be certain areas that are off-limit to such tactics.

These include: basic telecom and internet access, basic payment and disbursement systems, basic transportation, basic identity and profiles, etc.

Do you have any examples in mind? Even at the times of war the Internet and cellular infrastructure in Ukraine works. At least in the part controlled by Ukraine. I had a first-hand report of russian occuping forces shooting down cell stations using armored vehicle gun at the occupied territories. Ironically that hindered their own secure communication, as their ERA devices use 3G for encrypted communications.
