Facebook blocks Russian page supporting Navalny, Putin's biggest critic
(WashPost):
http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/facebook-blocks-russian-page-supporting-navalny-putins-biggest-critic/2014/12/20/a8c782b8-8877-11e4-abcf-5a3d7b3b20b8_story.html
"The page was set up on Friday after prosecutors recommended that
Navalny be sent to prison for 10 years in a criminal case that critics
have said is purely politically motivated. Within hours, the page drew
thousands of people who said they were planning to attend, and as of
Saturday evening, the number stood at more than 12,300. But it was no
longer visible to users inside Russia. "This content is currently
unavailable," the Web site told users who tried to access it from
inside the country."
