  1. One dilemma Russia has faced is that they want to suppress information from getting back from the front and their men’s sloppy comms security, but they also need them for men to fly drones and see their feeds.

  2. Guy seems a little all over the place w/a lede deep grasp of this topic. Anyhoo, it’s only a matter of time before IAs start scaling back on manpower w/OSINT now able to provide 90% of the info the agencies do (and often of better quality and more UTD). Personnel w/access to CIs in high place, who deploy and/or have access to our more advanced ISR feeds, etc. is a very tiny proportion of intel agency personnel. Where the line on “civilians” starts/ends is nearly a moot point when it comes to Russia because they already target every type of civilian indiscriminately. Is ringing a bell to let your neighbor know a Russian patrol coming make you a spy/combatant? The line can be moved anywhere. So, it needs to be firm even if it creates a problem for the military or every war will be limitlessly barbaric.
