"In order to circumvent the extreme censorship raging as we speak across Russian media, we enabled journalists to upload reports about Ukraine camouflaged as pirated torrents of popular movies, series, softwares, music and books in Russia."

"As of March 7, the Russian government has legalized intellectual property theft to counterattack the economic sanctions taken against it, thus encouraging Russian citizens to pirate content from 'unfriendly countries'. Turning this into an opportunity to bypass censorship, we launched a cyberaction across popular P2P platforms in Russia by uploading testimonies from volunteer journalists on the war in Ukraine disguised as pirated torrents of movies, series, softwares, music and books."

"In total, 21 torrents files have been uploaded and seeded on RuTracker, Demonoid, The Pirate Bay or 1337x and other torrent trackers popular in Russia."

I haven't seen any of these reports; I'm just passing this along because I think it's interesting that it exists.

This is a reminder of how "Western Countries", especially the US, created the Putin/Russia they lament about today themselves. It could have been different, but that would probably have been too boring and the US couldn't have been "dominant" enough...

After an introduction his speech (beginning at 06:00) is about half an hour, the rest is Q&A, also worth listening to.
