Russia: Crackdown on Social Media Users

When you live in a country like Australia it is easy to forget how fortunate we are to have the right/responsibility to vote, free speech and media. This is not the case for many, many people in the world and this impinges human rights and holds back the potential/progress of these citizens and indeed these countries. We hope that one day everyone in the world has the right to vote and is provided an opportunity to do so that is convenient, free and counted properly. We also hope that one day everyone has the right to provide feedback and offer opinions on the way their country is being run without fear. As well we hope that one day everyone in the world has access to independent media/social media which is well researched and able to cover the issues that will improve the world for us all.
