Drugs, Russia and the Internet
November 16th, 2006 by Alex
This is a quick one, but Russian Spy is reporting the internet is increasingly being used as a tool by criminal groups in Russia to push drugs. The number reported by the Director of the Russian Federal Drug Control Service is around 700 websites.
You can only get away with something like that in Russia. Considering AllofMP3.com is still operating with impunity, I doubt it will be easy to make progress against these websites. Still, it’s the job of the Russian authorities to try and battle the never-ending stream. Hopefully, there will be updates on this story as ringleaders are found and ousted.
