Activate the failover datacenters in orbit :)

Same for AWS Bahrain, data centers are dual use technologies now and valid military targets.

Google bots definitely come disguised, to check whether the web site serves different content to non-Google user agents.

Neither do Yandex bots. What's your point?

I am unsure what you're trying to say. But it seems like you don't understand what Bot means in general and how is it specifically defined for the metric provided in that page.

From that pages point of view, a Google bot, Yandex bot, or your uncle Tom's AI agent spam is the same, a bot.

> HN is just filled with the same primitive tribal normies

Yes, but it's mostly the opposite tribe of the one you're complaining about.

Yeah for real, enlightened one. Russia is great by every metric /s.

Will someone think of the Russkies.

> normies

Touch grass.

Thanks for making it clear that you didn't look past the submission title.

Of course they do, but they are quick with account bans when notified because of the liability issue unlike Yandex.

I like to study rhetoric, and appreciate folks asking for specifics. There's a lot of generalities thrown around on this forum that are highly questionable, and the only antidote I have is to request details. It's surprising how often folks resist.

A sibling comment replying to you is using a familiar tactic, which is to try to shame you for asking for specifics, while simultaneously providing none and telling you that it's obvious.

Occasionally people do provide details and I learn something, but that's not the common case, sadly.

> Can you point to a few comments that you consider examples?

Just search for “Russia” on HN and follow threads. You’ll find lots of “what about West/Jews”, “Russia is fighting against NATO”, etc. Then open any western news outlet on YouTube and follow comments too.

Post a controversial political statement and grab a beer.

The russian bots are better.. usually its conspiracy fog, attached to a valid russia opposing point that reveals them. Chinese bots are just this months CCP talking points, so can be quite easily visible if they cram some topic only china cares about into every reply.

Nobody wants honesty, everyone just wants to fit in with the collective. The downvotes are the collective, reactive mindset, showing itself.

The downvotes are because you're resisting easily-observed reality with the seemingly-rational response "Where is this 'air'? If I'm breathing it, it should be easy to point to, no?"

No. If you can't see it, and don't understand it's there, you cannot be explained to. You're someone with no palate asking how anyone else can know if a wine tastes good.
