Hmm it seems curious that this attack on a successful Ukrainian startup is happening at this time.

Could it be a Russian smear campaign? It seems like the sort of thing that the St Petersburg disinformation teams would attempt, in very subtle ways...

I doubt this has anything to do with Russia. Sometimes, all it takes is a little common sense and curiosity to even ask about these things.

Or maybe the guy just read the TOS. Some people actually do that!

It looks like Russians want to a) spread doubt, b) force users to look for alternatives, so they will find and install their trojans, to try them.
