In the rural areas, in the smaller uh towns where a hospital has only one uh internet connection without much redundancy for their emergency communications, for their um ability to get medical information from one place to another, there were real outages and real um um uh problems. Uh thankfully, no reports of any kind of serious injuries or loss of life. So let's take a look at who are the people behind this group. Kilm who is probably the most uh profilic uh member of Kilnet um and uh deriving his name al also from the name of the group uh is uh highly credited as a guy who established this. Meet Nikolai Saraphimov uh who was less than 30 years

old when uh Kilnet uh was uh started. And this uh particular individual looks normal.
