Putin’s media censorship
I know this is hardly fresh news, as it was distributed by agencies in December. But I had to illustrate its Spanish translation a lot later. I find interesting to link the efforts by Russian bloggers to overcome TV censorship trough the Net with other reports about the government hiring hackers and trolls aiming to […]
Trotsky/Morozov: cyberactivism and paleo-conservatism
August 4, 2011
The prolonged crisis of Capitalism in the core countries of the “globalized” economy has an ideological by-product in the extremist political rhetoric.
