The Case of Russian Censorship
#RussianCensorFiles is a large-scale leak of files (documents, screenshots, and emails) of employees of the General Radio Frequency Center (GRFC), a subsidiary of Russia's main Ñensor, Roskomnadzor. They were hacked in 2022 by a Belarusian hacker group called Cyberpartisans. They gave two terabytes of data to journalists of the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung, Important Stories and other Russian media.
