Showing roots of thinking derived from Leo Trotski’s Extraordinary Committee [CheKa] they have identified blogs as a national security threat. Apparently bloggers spread “misinformation”. The only bloggers willingly spreading misinformation are those that parrot what they hear coming from the mouths of official spokesweasels.

This is another reason to move off Blog*Spot, TypePad, etc.: the government is targeting these sites to control the information flow.
