Roskomnadzor entered into the register of prohibited information an interview with the magazine "Krot" with a professor of philosophy at the City College of New York, a specialist in stoicism, Massimo Pigliucci. This is reported by the telegram channel of the editorial office.
According to the authors of the channel, the site was blocked for promoting suicide in an interview with Pigliucci. The professor argued that the Stoics approved of the idea of suicide, "taught that under certain circumstances it is the right thing to do."
According to the information in the registry, the site was blocked by the decision of Rospotrebnadzor on July 30 on the basis of the law "On Information". Due to the protocol (https ) used by the site, it was only possible to block the entire site at once, and not a specific article, writes . Mediazona
“Of course, we didn’t receive any warnings, and even if we did, it makes no sense to talk with those who poison Russian people for their love for Epictetus and Seneca,” the editors said.
