Tell me of one person who wants to read unsolicited viagra offers and all that stuff.
> I'd argue what Russia is doing here is spam.
Problem is that there are a lot of half-truths embedded in pro-russian media outlets and many things that, how false they may be, seem to be their genuine viewpoints. I think it would be better to engage with that stuff and separate the half-truths from the lies instead of simply hiding everything away.

Spammers have been offering that product for decades because it works. People buy it. "Spam" is mostly just stuff you don't want to read. > I think it would be better to engage with that stuff and separate the half-truths from the lies instead of simply hiding everything away. It's not gone, it's just no longer near the top of a query for "what happened yesterday in Ukraine?" If you're looking for one answer to that question, Sputnik or RT is definitely not the best source.
