@JustinDerrick@infosec.exchange It’s a typical ruzzian strategy to reregister companies in another country while, in reality, the same people are working on the project in the same places.
Not so long ago, they hosted their firmware update servers in ruzzia, but now they hide them behind Cloudflare. They are still selling Flipper Zero in ruzzia in violation of sanctions. PayPal once blocked $1.3M from Flipper Zero’s account, and from that moment they have been relying on resellers instead.
You can try to trace the team members locations from the Kickstarter page and find out that they have been removed from Twitter. That is not how relocated workers usually behave. Meanwhile, the CEO (Pavel Zhovner) is still active on ruzzian tech sites (like this one), asking for help and promoting the project. It's a typical "You can leave ruzzia, but ruzzia never leaves you" situation.
