Link to the actual talk (why didn't op just link to the talk?) maybe, instead of linking to the website of a "security software" company with ties to the FSB?

Because a written summary is nice for people who want to read and might not be in a place where they can watch a video / listen to a talk?
There is much better original [1] article though.

This is a pretty low effort click-driving blog post though IMO - 'someone did a thing' - I linked 'someone's' ('Sick Codes'') original post on the 'thing' below.
With also a fragment of the meaning
I’m still fascinated how some people believe “ties to FSB” are somehow different from ties to NSA.
It's reasonable that "ties to the Zerg" would raise more eyebrows. Ties to a foreign entity are different to ones from the same political bloc/your own country.
It's just a manifestation of "us vs them" mentality.
