More info: Pavel Durov, the founder of vKontakte, which is the largest social network in the former Soviet republics, was pressured by Russia's security service (FSB) to reveal the identities of Euromaidan activists in Ukraine as well information related to the opposition in Russia. He refused, and was effectively pushed out of the company. This is part of Russia's new crackdown on free speech.
