    Russian online space is getting more violent. The last series of attacks on LiveJournal blogging platform has proved this once again. The attacks happened three times (on March 30, April 4 and April 6) paralyzing Russian political blogosphere. Whatever are the reasons (political, technical or commercial), the attack on LiveJournal is the attack on online speech in Russia. The bloggers, however, share responsibility for the situation.
