More spesficially: They didn’t renew the contract. Old agreement had expiration date and they just didn’t negotiate a new one. So Fingrid didn’t technically cut anything, they just shut down the connection when contract expired, as any other telco around the planet would’ve done.
Will this lead to 70% less disinformation and social media bot traffic?
Sadly the USA continues to act in the internets
crazy that the EU hasn’t cut everything the day russia invaded
They still need that sweet sweet gas
They probably have a switch , probably won’t literally cut it.
