PwnForums protège-t-il délibérément la Russie ?

A PwnForums administrator swiftly removed an announcement about Getmeback.ru, a Russian service offering payment solutions, citing a strict policy prohibiting Russian databases and data from several surrounding countries, including Ukraine. This action, alongside the forum's selective enforcement of its rules – banning Russian data while allowing leaks from other nations – raises questions about the forum's true political alignment and suggests a deliberate strategy to both protect Russian data and potentially lure in members operating from restricted regions. The incident highlights that a forum's internal rules and moderation practices can be valuable intelligence sources, revealing not just what is published, but also what is actively suppressed.
