Translated material
The knock precedes the sound. '37 came to the Internet
“And now the damned translator found himself in the hall, dialed out the number there and for some reason began to speak very tearfully into the phone:
- Hello! I consider it my duty to inform you that our chairman of the housing association at house number three hundred two bis on Sadovaya, Nikanor Ivanovich Bosoy, is speculating in currency. At the moment, in his apartment number thirty-five there are four hundred dollars in ventilation, in the toilet, and in newsprint. Timofey Kvastsov, a resident of the said building from apartment number eleven, speaks. But I beg you to keep my name secret. I fear the revenge of the above-mentioned chairman.
And he hung up, you scoundrel."
(M. Bulgakov “The Master and Margarita”)
“I can make the task easier for law enforcement agencies.
As far as I know, Navalny’s accounts were hacked by Sergei Nikolaevich Maksimov, born on May 4, 1974 in Moscow, who left for permanent residence in Germany in 1997 using Russian foreign passport 43 No. 4580316, issued on July 9, 1997. Under the name Maksimov Sergey, the hacker lives at : 53227 Bonn - Beuel, Josef-Thiebes-Str.19"

Well, that's all. The Internet has turned from a territory of freedom into a reception area for law enforcement and surveillance (of us) agencies. The first official informers have appeared, who even formalize denunciations to the Investigative Committee in the form of posts on LiveJournal. 37th year in modern packaging.
Previously, they fled to the NKVD (GPU, KGB, FSB) and, smearing tears of righteous anger on their non-reddening cheeks, tremblingly wrote, “I cannot remain silent... I consider it my duty to inform... I ask you to take action...”. Now in Mr. Malgin’s post I read the same thing, only formatted using a computer and not handed over to the investigator, but posted on the Internet. Essentially there is no difference.
Snitching is initially disgusting, and when political and commercial games are also mixed in, the situation becomes even dirtier. And it doesn’t matter whether this same Maksimov broke Navalny’s mail or not. The important thing is that now any opponent will be able to settle accounts with any of us via the Internet. During the day - a denunciation, and in the evening - a crater at the entrance.
And what else can I say to Malgin? Nothing. The Weiner brothers have already said everything - “It seems to me that you, dear man, are a snitch.”
Yes, and one more thing: a new era has begun in the Russian blogosphere - the era of informers and denunciations. Is this what those to whom these denunciations are intended were so eagerly awaiting from the Internet?
