Yesterday, we wrote about the adtech companies that are violating U.S. sanctions to funnel cash to Russian disinformation operatives.
But there are quite a few other tech platforms involved too.
SouthFront uses @PayPal for donations. They collect the cash under the very innocuous "Payment for information provision and analysis services."
This is all hella illegal.
SouthFront is also raising funds through @spring4creators. This means Spring is also violating U.S. sanctions to work with a Russian disinformation operation.
It brings me no pleasure to say that @gumroad is also in violation of U.S. sanctions against Russia.
Sometime in the last few days, @Patreon suspended SouthFront's account. Bravo.
Finally, SouthFront is hosted online by @Hetzner_Online, a web hosting provider based in Germany. This is not a great look for them!
