By the way, until recently I’d never noticed any kind of "troll invasion" in my little LiveJournal blog. It was obvious that in some journals (Yashin’s, for example) they practically live there, but I didn’t have that. I mean, there are always negative comments, of course, but from real people. But since the beginning of July, no matter what I write, if it mentions "Putin," "Medvedev," or "United Russia," they come swarming in right away. I guess they search for posts by keywords. Typical examples: one, two, three. And another interesting thing: the troll invasion is now clearly noticeable in posts about the "Magnitsky case" (the case surrounding Sergei Magnitsky). With that in mind, it’s worth reading this thorough investigation.
