US officers say
Uhhh hasn’t the US been caught with its pants down using iPhone in military situations?
Critical support for Comrade Strava.
At least I can remember UA getting massive casualties with social media posts which is arguably more pathetic
Le Reddit Brigade getting got by a cruise missile will never not be funny
The least regrettable casualty of the war.
Um, that’s whatsboutism
i distinctly remember articles about scrappy Ukrainians using civilian phones for things as essential as artillery targeting
I was gonna say wasn’t this exact same story coming out about the Ukranian military earlier in the war? About how it was getting them exploded before they were supposed to stop using personal phones? Oh but now it’s the genius tactics of the Ukranians to exploit the stupidity of the RuZZians, I see I see.
I will grant them that Russian soldiers are probably using their personal phones and that this probably poses some kind of security risk. Now, is this a Russian problem or something that also affects every other military in the world?
I really wonder if the benefits of every single soldier having a two way radio, camera, wikipedia, and gps all in one cheap plastic brick outweigh the risk of getting popped by e-war.
Phones really should be banned from soldier kits tbh. They shouldn’t deploy with them.
I know when I have a very real intelligence breakthrough like this I make sure to do a press release so my enemy knows they have to fix that particular weakness.
Funniest shit is they have been using grey market SIM cards from Ukrainian cell providers when within their coverage zones. There are plenty of Ukrainians willing to make some extra money creating accounts and selling said sim cards. The Russian military has even been using Ukrainian cell providers as the fallback data link for their drones once they cross the border. If Ukraine uses electronic warfare to jam Russian military radio frequencies, equipment just falls back to the Ukrainian cell network. Ukraine can’t do much about it without shutting down their own cellular network and doing so would be a morale/humanitarian disaster.
Really, the solution to this oughr to be building secure military phones that can only run whatsapp, tinder, and snake.
Fotmob also so they can check the football scores, thats it though
soldiers should under no circumstances have access to civilian dating apps. even when they’re on leave tbh
Still not as funny as
losers using tiktok for battlefield comms.Russians working overtime. Posting bullets with their guns and memes with their hearts and phones.
lol as if the shit they write when you have the memory of a goldfish that or you’re paid by word count and you’re running out of ideas.
Always remember the beautiful day the Reddit brigade got a missile up their ass because Russia hacked terf islanders phones lol.
Missile attack on Ukrainian military base was launched after Russian forces hacked into British phones(2)
That Jake Epstein sure looks familiar…
Lol I wonder what they’re gonna reframe next.
“Russia using cheap consumer drones against Ukraine!”
