Do not do this

@Gargron Do not do what what exactly, protest against the war?

ruff, this is pure vandalism, not a protest. Do protest. Don't vandalize stuff. That simple.

@grishka Oh right, of course. When your family is hot you request authorities to allow protest. got it. and if they reject - you oblige. Of course.

@grishka *is shot

ruff, you aren't making any sense. Please answer this simple question: how exactly a piece of malware unleashed upon innocent people is an act of protest?

@grishka @Gargron Innocent people will say - "shit happens" and learn the lesson (not to use npm). If there's a slim chance it can compromise a single nut in a russian war machine it's already a good win.
