"Zuckerberg will call" got into the registry of prohibited sites because of an article about bitcoins
For several hours, this news managed to fly around all the major news portals of the Runet - from Lenta.ru to Radio Liberty and Interfax .
The essence comes down to the following: On February 18, 2015, the Narimanov Court of the Astrakhan Region decided to recognize the article “What are Bitcoins and who needs them?” As information prohibited for distribution in Russia. ')
“On July 28, the Federal Service for Supervision in the Sphere of Communications, IT and Mass Communications (Roskomnadzor) sent the editorial staff of the CPU a notice on the inclusion of the site in the Unified Register of Banned Sites,” a statement published on the Zuckerberg will call website . The manager of the publishing house "Committee", which includes the site "Zuckerberg will call", Vladislav Tsypluhin wrote on his Facebook :
<...> Astrakhan court unexpectedly decided to delete the article “Zuckerberg will call” in 2013 with an elementary description of the principles of the work of bitcoins. Because through it, people allegedly can learn how to launder money. In response, Roskomnadzor sent them a letter asking them to justify their position - they say, it's just an informational article. To which the Astrakhan court stated that it was not obliged to provide an explanation: “The decision of the court does not contain any ambiguities to clarify it”.
We have not yet discussed this issue collectively, but I will defend the position that we should not delete anything. Let them close the site, and then they will explain to 1.8 million readers and the entire industry what is happening.
ZY In connection with this news, I had a few questions:
1. The Prosecutor’s Office believes that the article “has a negative effect on the legal conscience of citizens” and “actually teaches various ways of evading taxes”. The plaintiff, deputy prosecutor of the Narimanovskiy district, argued that the article contained information on the laundering of proceeds from crime.
I carefully read the article on siliconrus, but my skill of tax evasion remained at zero, WHERE?
2. An article published on siliconrus in April 2013 and giving rise to the Zuckerberg Call in the registry of prohibited sites is an adapted translation of the material “What Is Bitcoin?” In Business Insider, which is mentioned in the first paragraph . Hopefully, Russia's foreign partners have been warned about the presence under their nose of a site that has a negative impact on the legal conscience of honest taxpayers in America and Europe?
3. The funny thing is, Roskomnadzor asked the court for an explanation of which part of the article was illegal, but the court refused to provide it. Even the Roskomnadzor concluded that the article is purely informational in nature, Karl!
However, I have no questions here, I recently revised the “Caucasian Captive” 1 :
