Well, that was a pretty cluelessly written article. The two things are entirely unrelated. The headline seems to imply that Apple changed its mind about the fraudulent activity and was wrong, but that is not what the details support.
Yep, I can’t speak on the decline of quality because it was a site that was early to dark pattern bullshit. It would show up prominently in Google search and then tease “you have to sign up to read the answers”. Uh, no. Reminds me of expert sexchange or whatever that site was that got smashed by stackoverflow for similar reasons.
I’m sure they have sufficient infrastructure to route elsewhere if Russian servers are inaccessible. I doubt anyway that servers in the rest of the world are typically served from Russia since that would be inefficient.

Musk said, adding that he’s “not looking for additional economics; I just want to be an effective steward of powerful technology.”
Oh yes, we all believe this techno Jesus crap at this point. Right.
I’d reverse it. “Security researcher who has been thanked by Apple for helping fix bugs in MacOS found to be a serial fraudster”
Absolutely no reason to suggest that Apple “forgave” him, or that it was a mistake. I hate whoever wrote this article.
