Cyberwar by Lukashenko


The Belarusian authorities have declared war on Twitter, Fasebooku ...
My closest friend at the university - now KGB major, soon will appropriate rank of lieutenant colonel. She graduated with honors from the Belarusian State University, Faculty of Mechanics and, as the best student of the year residency training in the U.S.. She has always been exaggerated ambitions, and painful self-esteem, usually these people and get into the network security services. A girl in uniform - a hacker -paid KGB. She works in the technical department of the Committee, is engaged in the struggle against the enemies of Belarus in the virtual space. Perhaps, she occasionally breaks ... I have not seen her for about 12 years, she turned down his student friends. Personal life She just did not work, and all the internal energy has gone into the work. I remember her slightly arrogant, but very cheerful girl. I am sorry that her life has developed so poorly. It is engaged in an absolutely meaningless and futile affair.
... Once he even managed to hack our passwords, and a few hours to change the content on this site. For the operation of the Belarusian KGB, activated the embassy and its agents in Washington, Paris and Berlin.
During the presidential campaign in 2010 security forces engaged in phishing. It is this type of Internet fraud that aims to gain access to confidential data users. Intelligence agencies across the state company ... ISPs forced to deny access to independent sites. Ddos- attacks plagued independent resources. That is, hackers are working in uniform without a break. Only this cyber war declared by the authorities, is meaningless and futile. From the collapse of the regime in the real world will not save any attacks in cyberspace.
The site ... All sorts of anti-Lukashenka does not have the resources, too, yesterday. Lukashenko repeatedly said that is not afraid of independent information. And only now suddenly roused themselves and the authorities decided that all their problems are solely due to the activity of people in the network.
I do not believe in Twitter- Revolution. Just as I do not think that journalists are able to provoke social unrest and revolution. Journalists only reflect what is happening around. They may be slightly faster or slightly slower to transmit information to support those or other powers, but if not tell what, if a journalist supports idiots or impotent, the richest imagination of the journalist did not cause any waves of public. If society is sated and quite a life, even the most outrageous story does not make people tear ass on the seat warm. People will stare at the TV and drink a cup of telepropagandu and eating bacon as fond of saying Lukashenko.
But when people are fed up with government lies, when their wallets are empty, and recent idols disgust, then people start complaining, look around and take to the streets. First silence, then with some slogans, and after a while - with a pitchfork. There is thus an independent press or have been destroyed, does not really matter. Tsarist empire collapsed without any press. The Soviet Union collapsed, when the word of this - the Internet - no one knew. And not because of Twitter's collapse one after the other regimes in the Middle East, just fed up with the local kings, who ruled alone for decades and have brought their country into poverty.
