Comment Abandoned the ship just in time (Score 1) 629

This is exactly why i switched to WP, after my Android phone released in 2012 wouldn't get update past 2.3. That means that i couldn't use Chrome or some new apps. Even though enthusiasts dragged it till 4.3, user-maintained version was way too far from stable and polished. Now, after a year with Lumia, i can say i won't buy any Android products unless something changes in that department.

Ok, if you insist. OP is, probably, UNpaid pro-Putin poster. But this is quite unlikely.
See, there are quite a few people that are paid for posting Putin propaganda all around russian internet at 85 roubles ($2.5) per comment. Very similiar to chineese "50 cent party".
There was a scandal earlier this year, when few of responsible kremlin leaders got their email hacked and whole paying-for-posts thing emerged.

Internet Defense League: A Bat Signal For the Internet 101

mikejuk writes "Following the successful defense of the Internet against SOPA, website owners are being invited to sign up to a project that will enable them to participate in future protest campaign, the Internet Defense League. The banner logo for the 'bat-signal' site is a cat, a reference to Ethan Zuckerman's cute cat theory of digital activism. The idea is that sites would respond to the call to "defend the Internet" by joining a group blackout or getting users to sign petitions. From the article: 'Website owners can sign up on the IDL website to add a bit of code to their sites (or receive code by email at the time of a campaign) that can be triggered in the case of a crisis like SOPA. This would add an "activist call-to-action" to all participating sites - such as a banner asking users to sign petitions, or in extreme cases blackout the site, as proved effective in the SOPA/PIPA protest of January 2012.'"
