      I'm guessing the idea is that the game can potentially act as spyware and send back data straight to the Russian government, so Putin can send a missile to every Ukrainian IP address playing the game

        man imagine if the russians could go on OSM or google maps to figure out their random civilian houses to missile strike, that would be really bad

        I thought the libs said putin was running out of missiles and that the Russian brainpan was too small to be able to manufacture them

          We need NATO to stop paper tiger Russia who has pants pissing crybaby soldiers and no missiles who are also being supplied by Chinese and North Korean tech that is bad and also doesn't work. Also this war is really serious and Ukraine is getting slaughtered and on the verge of winning you guys

        A paranoid security focused government doesn't need much of an excuse to shut it down. The simple fact that it portrays the USSR in a neutral or positive light is enough given their definitely not Nazism inspired de-communism campaigns. Someone might remember that most Ukrainians actually liked and wanted to be part of the USSR towards the end.
