Just a small example of what can happen when hackers find the smallest crack.

Cybersecurity investigators worry ransomware attacks may worsen as young, Western hackers work with Russians

Cybersecurity investigators worry ransomware attacks may worsen as young, native-English speaking hackers in the U.S., U.K. and Canada team up with Russian hackers.

Also, Russian Cyber attacks have increased against European and U.S. targets since 2022, targeting government and financial institutions.

Ukraine and Russia have also been locked in a Cyber war, too.

Right, and a USAF(R) intel guy got a gigstick in, downloaded classified info, and posted it online in order to look cool. Egress and ingress in a computer system are essentially identical.

Eyeroll all you want, make a personal attack. Until you address facts, it's really not convincing. Offline systems can be cracked open, your optimism aside.

On the assummption this is directed at me, this is not a "conspiracy theory", your poisoning the well aside. As shown above, even secure systems can be hacked by bad actors.

Your faith is cute, but no system is impenetrable. Believe you're secure at your nation's risk.

I'm not quite sure how to phrase this question but, is the AFU more effective at taking out Russia's energy infrastructure than the 8th AF and Bomber Command was against the Third Reich's?

I think the devil is in the details and we don't have all of the information. However I would say no. Ukraine would only be able to hit a small portion of Russia's oil infrastructure. During WWII, much/most of Germany's oil infrastructure was attacked, multiple times by the allies. Much of it was put out of operation.
 
Germany itself was accessible from Allied bases in the north west and south west, it's infrastructure being grouped near urban centers (which in turn had manufacturing sites) and is or was a much smaller geographic area than Russian proper.

Ukraine can only strike Russian targets from their territory, which puts only a few major infrastructure sites within their reach.
