The creators of Masha and the Bear have issued an official appeal to British MPs, after the cartoon was accused of being Kremlin “soft power” and hidden propaganda.
“British deputies, there has been a terrible misunderstanding,” Masha says, in character..
“We're not soft power, and certainly not a Kremlin propaganda tool. We are just an ordinary commercial cartoon about friendship and looking out for one another. ”
“Honestly, honestly.”
The statement ends: “Oops. Oh well, we weren’t that bothered anyway.”

🎭 "Protecting children" has become the standard legal/PR cover.

@robertbrautigam Even a corporate webapp will mean html+js. Then you get to Reactjs.
Any other api will serve mobile clients too. Then composting ui on server is not an option, not in case of the main screens of the ui. A webapp needs to match the mobile usability, and you arrive to React again.
