This, also I would not bet, that sanctions might be a critical stopper to the exchange of criminals.

Achtung Baby was very good album, real creativity to enjoy. But now we are going to fry ourselves by increasingly wasting energy on things, we can't even have satisfying - hundreds of fake currencies, limitless incarnations of pseudo-cultural signal. What next?

Mankind is doomed, and should leave space to the remaining species, these could do so much better.

"sends it to ruZZian servers either immediately or once a day" - you don't need ruZZian servers in the realm of Ukraine, short them at providers.

Mankind outsmarting itself.

I am also Linux user, early bird at it, but I do not bind it to WinRAR usage domain. Of course, we have solid Unix-tribe tradition on similar needs, just that it has little say as to this article.

We have other fleet of compression/packing utilities "for serious IT work" on "serious OSes". In the context of the discussed article, we are covering application of WinRAR - which is for not serious OS, exists not for serious reasons, as historical possibility to split large archives into chunks of floppy disks (assuming they have no bad sectors). Please do not portray yourself high flight professional, if you are not ready to accept limited domain of this discussion professionally.

OK, here is the way I think over it:
1. Particular speed/size wins, you might be advocating by pointing to another archive form, are not essential when performance and space are very much secondary concern nowadays
2. Software, coming from particular countries, is of much bigger concern
3. I do believe, that integral part of the OS, serving the needs of archiving and extracting, is proper engineering design and correctly assigned responsibility - as such, it's all about ZIP
4. When working on clients' computers, I am disappointed by how carelessly archive tools are being added to the system, how ignorant users are about popping licensing screens, and how exotic exchange formats are sent, when simple settling on standard ZIP should be the answer

Then go for your WinRAR from ruZZia with love.

ZIP had to be settled on long ago as a professional and only choice of archiving.

Well, to be exact, article repeats multiple times "traditional", while it is preceding next words "collector", "buyer", but not "investor" in particular. As this appears to be claimed of importance, the case should be examined as it is worded and reasoned in the lawsuit. At this point we are getting information already generalized for publishing. Still, the core of the claim is depicted well enough: picturing crypto speculator as traditional collector/buyer/investor is misleading.

You'll have to investigate details - it may have had effect on future deals, once statement about traditional collector was provided to public, setting appropriate expectations on the value of particular investment.

Well, it is true, Sotheby's misrepresented buyer. FTX is NOT and was NOT a "traditional investor". It's about claiming, that such hype did set foot in general public demand - not in that case.

Claim has rational statement in it: it was misleading to present company, set for crypto speculations, as a traditional collector.
