Yeah. For me, the scariest scene in any movie is the first 15 minutes of Inglorious Basterds.

They know where you are and if you show up as a dot on someone’s computer screen or a line on a form, you’ll get a visit.

Come to think of it, the movie, Brazil comes to mind too.

You are correct and we also would need to be concerned in that respect of Russia...and any number of nations willing to give nuclear devices to be launched near our shores for employment affect.

Guys, read this closer. The way this site wrote it up is incredibly misleading. The actual announcement isn't about safety, its about appearance of impropriety.

This is targeted at families of state employees. The idea is that Russia is in the midst of an anti-corruption campaign, and it sets a very bad example for children of elites (especially those that are state workers) to be going to school abroad when regular Russians don't typically have that option.

Sort of a "eat your own dogfood" thing. Mostly, I think they send their kids abroad just because they can. In general, Russian education institutions actually tend to be excellent.
