Even as someone who believes that the datacenter strikes reduced Russian propaganda traffic, I don't think this article does anything to support that idea. It has the known Yandex traffic drop. It has some conjecture about what might be lurking within that yandex traffic and then never gives us any evidence.

It mentions the r/conservative accounts, but tells us about a day they skipped a year ago when attacks happened. And the rest is the same. Nothing ties this to the current data center attacks. This is basically just propaganda in the direction I like. I hate it. Right now I basically have to back up my gut feeling about this current event with prior incidents.

This author seems content with that, but I'm not. Being content with that is a good way to be complacent and nod along to things that either aren't true or give your adversary more credit than they deserve.
