Documents and correspondence from the internal network of the General Radio Frequency Center (GRFC) subdivision of Roskomnadzor. GRFC monitors social media and other open sources in order to implement the Kremlin censorship and provide data for decision makers. They follow Putin’s opponents, write denunciations to the FSB & other agencies and block services that help convey truthful information.
Distributed Denial of Secrets made the data available to a number of outlets under embargo, and made the data searchable as part of the Hunter Memorial Library.
Due to the potential for sensitive information and at the request of the source, the data is only available to journalists and researchers.
This dataset was released in the buildup to, in the midst of, or in the aftermath of a cyberwar or hybrid war. Therefore, there is an increased chance of malware, ulterior motives and altered or implanted data, or false flags/fake personas. As a result, we encourage readers, researchers and journalists to take additional care with the data.
This is a standard disclaimer that will be added to all datasets in the Cyberwar category, even absent specific suspicions.
