In my opinion to use of politicization is not applicable if we speak about the hacker group. It suffices to point out that they are from Russia, and "pro-Russian" is a political term that has nothing to do with the article. MarjanaFrut (talk) 18:36, 22 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Disagree, sources call them pro-Russia, like Pro-Russia 'Killnet' hackers target Italian institutions. There is a difference between being Russian or based in Russia and supporting the political goals of the Russian state. --StellarNerd (talk) 18:42, 22 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
I went with what sources state, which is that they are pro the Russian state. Autarch (talk) 18:47, 22 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Yes. They are on Russian side right now, but it doesn't mean they are pro-russian. This the political term. And as you can see your link has a political connotation. I am for Wikipedia without politics. MarjanaFrut (talk) 07:09, 23 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia editors should follow what WP:RS say, not put our own interpretations on them, which would be WP:OR. Autarch (talk) 10:38, 23 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
Exactly. And all the sources point out they are pro-Russia. --StellarNerd (talk) 21:11, 23 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Attack on Lithuania edit

They also attacked Lithuania as a response to the Kaliningrad blockade, and as a response to Lithuania not meeting some ultimatum made by Killnet.
