This week, the developer of the popular npm package 'node-ipc' released sabotaged versions of the library in protest of the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian War. The 'node-ipc' package, which gets downloaded over a million times weekly, began deleting files on developer's machines, in addition to creating new text files with "peace" messages.

Lmao

      We are an American NGO based in Washington, D.C. that monitors human rights infringements by authoritarian regimes in Belarus, Russia and other post-Soviet states. Since our start in 2014, we have been in contact with over 2,500 whistleblowers that provided us with detailed reports on various kinds of abuse happening there.

      LOL. The move is pure dogshit, but I'm not shedding a tear for these spooks.
