#Russia puts international #court’s top leadership on wanted list

Russia’s #ministry of internal affairs has placed International Criminal Court (ICC) President Piotr #Hofmański on its wanted list, according to the ministry’s online database.

I think Russia's #policy and the #war in #Ukraine is very problematic. But if I try to look at the whole matter neutrally, I can't help but notice the following: If the #ICC only prosecutes war #crimes that were not committed by #NATO, then the judges are not #independent which is also a #crime.

Brazilian #hacker says #Bolsonaro asked him to tamper with voting machine

Computer programmer Walter #Delgatti told lawmakers he met in August with then-President Bolsonaro, who asked him to discuss the idea with experts at the defense #ministry and offered to pardon him if he suffered legal consequences.

"He gave me a blank check to do what I wanted with the voting machines," Delgatti told the inquiry. "The idea was to take a machine ... so I could install my app there and show the population that it is possible to press the button for one vote and end up with another."

This is the reason why one should not use too much technology in elections but only very simple slips of paper that can be easily counted and verified.

#Russia’s pro-war #bloggers become a serious #threat to the #Kremlin

The behavior of both the Kremlin and the #Defense #Ministry is the latest disappointment for patriots and Russian nationalists, who have offered scathing #criticism on some of the leading pro-war #Telegram channels. Within the “fog of war,” patriotic Russian channels – many of which are run by people on the front lines or who have good sources in the Russian forces and are often unconcerned about #military #censorship – are almost the principal sources of #information about the true state of affairs at the #front.
