OK. Want another one? WikiLeaks’ “Spy Files Russia” (2017) exposed Russian surveillance practices. WikiLeaks published documents detailing how a St. Petersburg company (Peter-Service) assisted Russian state entities in mass surveillance of cellphone users as part of the SORM system. While some observers found the release relatively tame or possibly “fishy”/limited, it still highlighted domestic spying tools and partnerships between tech firms and intelligence agencies—topics the Kremlin prefers to keep opaque.
