A group of people who want to take down the government of Putin are amassing on the messaging platform Telegram.
Taking down government websites intermittently won't stop Russian forces from shelling Kyiv, but it is a noble effort that shows the international community is desperate to do something.
NetBlocks says that the group has taken down Russian government websites, and that more than 300,000 people have joined.
NetBlocks director Alp Toker told The Guardian that the attacks had been successful in disrupting Russian government and state-backed media websites.
Mykhailo Fedorov, Ukraine's vice prime minister, called for people to join the group.
There will be tasks for everyone. We are fighting on the cyber front.
People from other countries are also fighting.
Sam, an employee of an adtech company in Ukranian, told The Guardian that they have been in a war with Russia. He has been using advertising platforms to fight Russia.
There is a more realistic take on the matter by experts.
It may be a nuisance to the Russians, but the attacks we have seen so far haven't really affected the Russian fighting capability.
It's a sign that a lot of people care about the conflict.
The 300,000 volunteer hackers coming together to fight Russia is the right thing to do.
There is more on the war.
