Digital fashion authorities dispersed the rally Zhirinovsky

Plastic world won party of Vladimir Zhirinovsky. On Saturday, the birthday of its longtime leader, the liberal democratic party wanted to hold Russia’s first coordinated online meetings to “Yandex.Navigator”. And even tried. The new digital reality stopped the rally is much more effective of Regardie.

Recall, online demonstrations swept the country starting Monday. Citizens using the service “Conversations” in maps and Navigator Yandex, scored an angry message location authorities, even the Kremlin. Because the messages are not related to the traffic situation in the “Chatter” is prohibited, they quickly deleted by the moderators. The liberal democratic party, realizing that the street is not to go out, but you can become a pioneer of virtual meetings, wrote a letter to “Yandex”. So and so, we’ve got 74 years of Vladimir Zhirinovsky, please “to allow the online rally of the liberal democratic party on April 25 at 12:00 and not to block users, leave political message to this address”. So IT becomes a real power.

on April 25, I also came to the rally in the 1st Basmanny pereulok. It was quiet and dull. Mold on the fence longer life. Normally cheerful and mischievous falcons of Zhirinovsky as-that timidly broke through the digital barriers and left a rare comment. In fact, not commentary, and even political slogans and banal congratulations to his leader. The maximum number of simultaneously appearing messages never reached ten. They very quickly disappeared and most of the time messages do not see. (The “meeting” of the Kremlin a few days ago at the same time appeared dozens of “talking.”)

Why is this happening, it became clear when I decided to participate in “performances” and tried to leave a message. Failed. Yandex, it seems, “dokrutili” your service — now the message only to leave the map beside him. Me and reported you too far.

forty Minutes after the start of the event messages stopped to appear. Perhaps the participants just tired. How many were there? At the ordinary meeting desired by the authorities the figure gives the police desired by the opposition — all the “white counters”. As a result, after listening to both, you can get more or less objective picture of mass protest. And there is nothing to check. You will form a reality. Live with it.
