俄羅斯封禁Facebook抗議活動網頁
Russia has blocked a Facebook page cAlling for a protest in support of opposition leader Alexei Navalny, as the Kremlin tightens its control of the internet and social media.
The Move capped a week of drama in Russia, where a collapse in the value of the rouble triggered widespread alarm and rattled the population’s confidence in President Vladimir Putin.
As of Sunday afternoon, 12,000 people had said they would attend the protest, which was called for January 15, the date of the verdict in Mr Navalny’s case. A separate Facebook page, set up after the first one was blocked, had attracted 15,700 promises of attendance.
Vadim Ampelonsky, a spokesman for communications regulator Roskomnadzor, told Interfax on Saturday that the prosecutor-general had requested that access be blocked “to internet pages on Facebook which contain calls to unauthorised mass events”.
At his annual press conference on Thursday, Mr Putin said “the border line between the opposition and the fifth column is very thin”, using a Stalin-era term to describe traitors within Russia that Mr Putin has repopularised.

俄羅斯加大了對網際網路和社交媒體的控制力度,封禁了一個呼籲開展抗議活動、支援反對派領導人阿列克謝•納瓦爾尼(Alexei Navalny)的Facebook網頁。
有人呼籲在納瓦爾尼案判決當日,即2015年1月15日舉行這一抗議活動。截至週日下午,已有1.2萬人表示會參加該抗議活動。此外,在第一個Facebook網頁被封之後,有人在Facebook上另外設立了一個網頁。後者吸引了1.57萬人表態,承諾將參與該抗議活動。
週六,俄羅斯通訊監管部門Roskomnadzor發言人瓦季姆•安佩龍斯基(Vadim Ampelonsky)告訴俄羅斯國際文傳電訊社(Interfax),俄羅斯總檢察長要求“對含有呼籲開展未經批准的大規模事件的網頁予以封禁”。
這一舉措的推出,正值俄羅斯加大對反對派打擊力度之際。同時,俄羅斯政府還十分偏執地認為,俄羅斯可能發生烏克蘭獨立廣場(Maidan square)模式或阿拉伯之春(Arab Spring)模式的人民革命。
