Back in May, the EU decided to wield its mighty¹ fist & drop some sanctions on Stark. Except…they (the EU) suck @ OPSEC & the impending sanctions leaked. 2/5

As a result, Stark did a series of stunningly adroit "business", organizational, & network infrastructure moves that not only let them completely avoid punishment, but also come back even stronger and more dangerous than they were before. 3/5
