> According to another source, a public address book at locatefamily.com, someone under the name Vladimir S. Nesterenko is living at [REDACTED] in Moscow. Vladimir lives according to Google Streetview it’s an apartment complex far away from the Moscow city center... Really? Someone investigating with journalists, and may be considered a journalists themselves (?), actually publishes the address of someone that they a…
Here is the real question everybody should ask themselves: In today’s world, Why do I try to work honestly for a dollar?
It's a very important question. IMO we should be most mindful of our work and moneymaking since we spend most of our waking life doing these things. When we are dishonest in our moneymaking, we are probably creating unnecessary suffering for others. That's enough reason for some. IMO it also feels easier to love and be loved (e.g. by friends, family, your children, etc.) if you are honest in your dealings with others…
Not if you whip up an aggregator site in a week that makes money on autopilot

"Organized" usually implies a, well, organization . This seems like it may be just one guy. I don't see anything about this site that would particularly require an "organization".
"Seems like it may be just one guy." One cannot make this statement weaker. We don't know and we cannot know now whether it is just one guy.
I understand the economic lubricant that ads provide to keep many things connected and operating, but its such a one way flow that ads are a syphon more that they are a grout.

Using that piece of rather silly putin's propaganda as a source lowers your credibility greatly.
Ahem. The maker of that documentary is anti-Putin to the extent he supports the theory that Putin blew up some Russian apartment buildings to start a war. Browder, on the other hand, is actively surpressing the documentary; even if none of the things said about him in the documentary are true (in which case you'd think he would sue the guy who made it for libel; a guy who lives in the UK), that's pretty shady.

I get the impression ATM that copyright infringement is legal as long as nobody complains. When one person complains or files a DMCA takedown notice, no problem, it gets taken down. It needs to be a big company's documents - like Elsevier or (in the Bittorrent era) music publishers - before a major legal action is undertaken to take a site offline. TL;DR it's not a crime if nobody complains. Now that someone complain…
It is illegal but you may escape consequences if no one complains.
