"Do not look for me Vkontakte, in Classmates we do not" - sang Potap and Nastya. Just as the water looked. They knew, probably, something. By the way, I, too, do not. And I do not use Yandex, and mail. Ru long ago removed at will. But it was my choice. My decision. I am a free man and I want to live in a free country. So, categorically against me, dictate me, where to draw information, which books to read and what sources to trust. "You are on the right road, comrades" - now, it seems not in a trend. Decommunization after all. Moreover, a universal and comprehensive. All scoop scrap. Europeanization is now in vogue. And here it is ... Uniform, without a court decision, bans on access to information always lead to usurpation of power and always violate the foundations of a democratic society. George Orwell in the novel "1984" perfectly illustrated this picture. And one should not talk about Russian subversive work on these social platforms. This is all a distracting maneuver for fragile minds. Absolutely not important is the pretext and argument. Both can always be found and justified. It is not important to motivate such decisions. It is obvious to everyone. Moreover, the true motivation has nothing to do with the publicly stated position. Twisting nuts under patriotic slogans about national security are signs of the totalitarian thinking of the authorities. On the ideological front, there are always intellectual battles. Intellectual and technological. And this must be resisted. Systematically, creatively and professionally. On the same sites you need to win the minds of the younger generation. Offer your ideas, your position, your humanitarian choice. Their discussion platforms. To enthrall, interest, be half a step ahead. But this requires brains. At the state level. And at us all through ж @ пу. Frankly stupid, and not zamorachivayas. This is also the result. As they say, "maemo te, scho maemo".

I am sure that the President was framed. Both legally and politically. First, because the solution is uniquely losing in the medium term. Moreover, it does not bear any positive today. Quite the contrary. More than 20 million (!!!!) Citizens of Ukraine used these communication platforms, and consider such actions of the authorities real and rigid censorship. Hopes for national security and cyber defense against Russian influence are untenable, as everyone knows how much Russian business operates in Ukraine, and how many of our campaigns are doing business in Russia. Hence, these are double standards.

Secondly, because any prohibition without offering an alternative is futile and causes only a sense of protest and the opposite effect. Going to the "information underground" will never be welcomed, and will never yield positive results in the global process of forming a free nation. The once-banned "Voice of America" ??and "Free Europe", together with Solzhenitsyn, have disorganized such a monster as the USSR. Destroyed from the inside. From the information underground.

Thirdly, the attempt to "protect" its citizens from "unnecessary" information influence by such methods is futile and short-sighted. Moreover, it distances Ukraine from the civilized world and democratic foundations. Even the websites of IGIL or other obviously terrorist organizations are working all over the world. And they are not forbidden. This is freedom of choice. This is the global world and modern challenges. Remember the beautiful scene from the classic work "Kill the Dragon," where the power of the "free city" decides to shield itself from the "evil tongues" that spread information about the Dragon, hammering all the windows?.

Well. Today's decision of the Ukrainian government is analogous. Just a cast from a crooked mirror. This "saga of evil languages".

And, fourthly. The lack of one's own humanitarian strategy and its own Information Security Program, along with the authorities' desire to control and channel public opinion, lead to such decisions. Which, in turn, are destructive and dangerous for the state and society. And most importantly, such decisions are only to the benefit of our ideological enemies. Taking away from the youth and fans of music "VC", and among the housewives "Classmates", the state is unlikely to win their understanding and favor, their heart and mind. Quite the contrary. Until recently, we all ridiculed any prohibitions in Russia, rightly considering them a testament to the totalitarian regime of Putin. Be it the closure of any website, TV channel, public organization or Dutch cheese. Remember how proud we were that we were moving in a different direction? And what has changed? Arguments, you say, serious? So in the Kremlin reasonably enough and systematically led to such decisions. Also about the information anti-state sabotage. And information was prepared by them better and more competently than we. Preparatory communication was more.

Only the essence of it does not change. And that, we are following their path? And notice, immediately after receiving a visa and holding a "Eurovision". This is a dangerous path. Which can just as deplorably end, as in the work of Schwartz ... And, for all of us. And without Lancelot.
