AlexandrP | 9 years ago | on: How does Skype vulnerabilities repaired
The article is emotional and length so here is TLDR:
There are several methods how your skype account can be disabled permanently by an attacker. Some of them have been known for a long time. Russian social network (vk.com) has tens of groups, consisting mostly of teens, who do so for fun or for money ($30 per account. Author tested one of "services" and it work). Microsoft does not fix these vulnerabilities for many years and recovering account almost imposible (Microsoft's support does not reacts on any evidences and gives formal replies to attack victims)

Picture from article, especially right part (docker > 1.11.0) is that true? [0]

> Article presents Russian POV.
> For example it states that Kievan Rus was Russian predecesor state, "in what is now Ukraine".
> It's like saying Roman Empire was a French predecessor state in what is now Italy. Not the whole story.
It is a weak comparison. The fact that the Russian state has its roots in Kievan Rus, with the center in Kiev, is not disputed by any Russian historiography (I'm russian historian), neither Ukrainian nor Western. It is the same for Ukraine and Belarus - we all believe that our common roots lie in the Kievan Rus. Therefore, we call each other sister nations.
> Not that it matters much, but it's one of the constantly repeated points of Russian propaganda - that Ukraine is a temporary state with no history.
It is not true. Here are _TON_ of BS from state mass media. But no one, in their right mind, would talk like that.
