Violence against Russia's web dissidents raises fresh fears for internet freedom
- gengkev 10y agoHow does this compare with approaches used by other governments to limit freedom?
- woodandsteel 10y agoI would guess it is worse than maybe 90% of the other countries in the world. By the way, is it your implication that we should not condemn Russia because other nations are as bad?
- woodandsteel 10y agoBy the way, it is interesting the OP does not deny the government is behind the attack. I guess because it is hopeless to try to persuade people to think well of the Russian government, and so instead its boosters fall back to the position that all other governments are just as bad.
