Senate Effort to Ban Russian Software on US Military Systems

Kaspersky has for several years now been attempting to sell his software to the U.S. government. But Im fairly certain there has always been a ban on foreign design software on U.S. government systems. I think this so called proposal is not about removing said software from government systems or a new ban of anything but just to generate political hay. To get you to jump on the band wagon, to think a certain way about Kaspersky software and Russia.

IMO the news we see now is tailored for public consumption, associating Kaspersky with Putin. Which is going to scare a lot of Americans into ditching Kaspersky for something more American like Prism... err I mean McAfee. In turn it might hurt the Russian economy even more and hopefully get Putin out.

The only way to safeguard your personal information on the internet is dont log on to it. If everyone did that then there truley would be far reaching implications.

Btw Comrade whats up with the Russian colors on Subsim?

. You speaky da Rusky?
