This follows last week's thread on Ukrainian drone strikes on Yandex data centers. What's new is a report from Ukraine's Center for Countering Disinformation, covered by UNITED24 Media: it tracked 22,664 messages from 5,201 accounts showing signs of inauthentic behavior on Facebook and Telegram between October 6 and 12. After the October 8 strike on the Sasovo data center, messages fell from 4,032 to 660 in a day (83.6%), then recovered and passed pre-strike levels by October 10 and 11. After the reported shutdown of a Vladimir data center, they fell again by 42.6% on October 12.

The most-upvoted replies take political shots or say Reddit has felt calmer; one widely upvoted reply notes that the earlier, widely shared drop was in Yandex's search crawler traffic, not spam bots. About 38,600 upvotes in an 18-million-member community.
