Censorship and VPN
In Russia goverment is trying to control everything: from oil production and pasta price to information. During the first Putin’s term he destroyed independent TV. It was explained as a fight against oligrachs, that controled media. As a result state controls all TV channels now and there is no place for Kremlin critics there.

The Testaments
I’ve just finished the Testament book by Margaret Atwood and I liked it. I like anti-utopia books in general and that’s one of them. During the reading, I realized that it’s the second book in the series. However, you could enjoy it even without reading the first book (The Handmaid’s Tale).
