Hoje (7 de janeiro) é celebrado o Natal na Rússia!
O personagem mais importante do Natal no Ocidente é o Papai Noel, enquanto a Rússia tem seu próprio homem bom velhinho – Ded Moroz. Ambos são variações do “portador de presentes de Natal”, que existe no folclore de muitos países. Papai Noel, o personagem mais comum para os cristãos católicos, é derivado de São Nicolau. O russo Ded Moroz, por sua vez, vem do folclore dos contos de fadas eslavos.

In 2014, Pavel Durov fled the country after allies of the Kremlin took control of the social networking site most know just as VK. Russia's intelligence agency had asked Durov to turn over the data of anti-Kremlin protesters. Durov refused to do so. In 2018, Russia banned Telegram although it reversed the prohibition two years later. One thing that Telegram now offers to all users is the ability to “disappear” messages or set remote deletion deadlines. That enables users to have much more control over how long people can access what you’re sending them. Given that Russian law enforcement officials are reportedly (via Insider) stopping people in the street and demanding to read their text messages, this could be vital to protect individuals from reprisals. I want a secure messaging app, should I use Telegram? On February 27th, Durov posted that Channels were becoming a source of unverified information and that the company lacks the ability to check on their veracity. He urged users to be mistrustful of the things shared on Channels, and initially threatened to block the feature in the countries involved for the length of the war, saying that he didn’t want Telegram to be used to aggravate conflict or incite ethnic hatred. He did, however, walk back this plan when it became clear that they had also become a vital communications tool for Ukrainian officials and citizens to help coordinate their resistance and evacuations.
