I hope it isn't, of course. ( the nuclear taboo). But, what this war has exposed is how bad the russian army is trained, and how not so great their equipment is. While a prolonged war would be hard for any country, they struggled from

Explain AirTags and their ability to highjack the internet connectivity of any apple device. Did you get asked about that? So why is it ok for apple to do that, and non of their vendors?
