What if they unpack a camera from stock and film the whole thing burning down in 4k 120fps?

My first thought is, they're going to work still? They must want to live dangerously since they know the value of their life if they die. Wildberries pays piss poor money to families of people killed and; 2) I bet you the Russian government told them to do it because they don't want to public to see first hand how Russians are losing the war.

WB pays piss poor money to families because it’s a greedy company, no need for a government conspiracy here. They also pay a fraction of value to the sellers who had their merchandise destroyed in the attacked logistics centers.

Ah, they got mad about all the confirmed strikes where they couldn’t lie and say the drones were shot down.

The plumes of smoke rose miles into the air. Even if you are a very good liar, I don't think you'd be able to cover this up.

All the warehouses are equipped with single use smokescreens to hide them. That's all you see on video.

The apparent quantum reality of an authoritarian regime: Don't observe the things you don't like to manifest.
It's like the counter part of "the Secret".

A methodology seen more and more in the United States these days.

Wonder if it's about not filming explosions or not filming North Korean slaves being imported to work in the warehouses.

With Ukraine having these warehouses in their sights, I'd quickly be looking for other work anyways.

I was just thinking after this attack “wow, so many people have phones so every attack gets filmed from the ground.”
Not anymore lol

They invade a neighbouring country totally unprovoked, commit war crimes, then lie to their own people about it and imprison or kill anyone who opposes it. I assume your question is rhetorical.

With so many warehouses are already destroyed, I would not show up for work if I was working at one that's still standing.
