Is this article saying that Ukraine values the money that can be made from battlefield data more than the people’s lives that are terminated by this war not to mention the destruction of property, suffering, loss of welfare support in Germany,etc? I wonder if the West will agree? I mean, the headline is saying this isn’t it?

> "The data we have is priceless for any country," Mykhailo Fedorov, who heads Ukraine's digitalisation ministry, told Reuters in an interview, adding that Ukraine is currently "very careful" about sharing it.

In other words - the Dryland Minister of Thingies is merely floating a trial balloon, hoping to find a worthwhile market for Drylandian Thingies.

That seems a reasonable move on Mr. Fedorov's part - but the title is over-spun at best.
