Message: [QUOTE="DS3, post: 6313692, member: 407846"] I am happy with the decision also and hope other sites join with the sanctions (though I think it unlikely all will). I have scanned down the comments and wanted to add my opinion regarding information and the effect sanctions could have. Jill Dougherty is a journalist and academic I admire with 50 years of direct experience with Russia. She was just forced to leave Moscow as Putin is now threatening journalists with a 15 year prison sentence if they describe the invasion as a war. Dougherty believes it might be the last time she reports from Russia. In an interview back in Washington she made a point of talking about communications and the Russian media. Dougherty confirmed the fact that a few of us have discussed here - elderly Russians accept what they are spoon fed by state dominated television and newspapers. But for other Russians there are still options available in spite of the media clampdown for citizens to communicate with each other and source unfiltered information. Now that the likes of even McDonalds have shut down, numerous people must be asking what the hell has really happened and I imagine they will start to turn to various apps which will allow them to be truly informed of the reality. That is where, hopefully, a real people's movement will grow and gather steam. [/QUOTE]
