Today's methods of warfare are different from those used in the 1940s. The task of the military is facilitated by the Internet, thanks to which it is possible not only to learn about the enemy's intentions, but even to correct fire. Most often, the enemy receives information through provocations and tricks. Not knowing about the rules of safe online behavior, each of us can complicate the task of the AFU. You will learn how to prevent this from happening in the article.

No photos or videos

Despite the fact that the war has been going on for more than six months, some users of social networks, in particular teenagers, continue to post photos and videos of the area hit by an enemy shell. People act on their emotions, wanting to share unique experiences and exclusive information with everyone. At the same time, the photo is already being reviewed by Russian servicemen, who are assessing the accuracy of the missile launch and can promptly repeat it to completely destroy a certain object, in which, most likely, there are people.

Another taboo is the publication of the movement of Ukrainian equipment and the location of military units and roadblocks. Since the end of March of this year, such actions are punishable by 5 to 12 years imprisonment. At the same time, it does not matter to Themis whether it was done deliberately or by negligence.

The only case when military vehicles and personnel can be photographed is the movement of the Russian crew. Such photos should be sent to the Telegram bot "stop_russian_war_bot".

Inform the children and be vigilant yourself

One of the enemy's tactics is to recruit the population, including minors, through the Internet. Under the guise of a civilian, the military offers schoolchildren a "job" - informing them about critical infrastructure in the city, photographing locations of AFU, telling them about the moods among the population, etc. Unfortunately, many unemployed adults and kids help the occupiers. They may have no idea who they are informing, believing they are doing a good deed. To prevent this from happening to your children, have a conversation with them and forbid them to answer suspicious questions on the Internet, even if they belong to people they know.

Be aware of the threat of call interception

Another danger of our time is wiretapping. Russian cybercriminals may well record some conversations between our military and civilians. That is why it is not a good idea to discuss things that could be used against our army. When informing someone about a recent missile strike, limit yourself to abstract phrases: "our favorite park", "the area where Ivan Petrovych lives", "where we saw a nice picture", etc. The interlocutor will understand you, but enemy intelligence will not.

Refusing to connect to open Internet sources is another mandatory rule for you. It is better to use home Wi-Fi or other verified access point, which hackers cannot penetrate.

By following these simple rules, you will greatly facilitate the work of our military and special services, who every day are trying to end the war as soon as possible.
