TL;DR - According to Business Solidarity, one in six Russian entrepreneurs is in prison, with one in three total prisoners being classed as a businessman.
One example is a dairy farmer who refused to sell his thriving business to an unknown buyer at the request of Russia’s interior security service. After repeated threats, he was accused of fraudulently using a bank loan and sentenced to five years in prison.
Not all businessmen end up in jail, as an estimated 60-80% don’t complain, share their profits and bribe officials.
It's only useful to those who haven't read the article. To those who have, it adds only noise (at best, filler) to the discussion. Beside, it sets a poor precedent. Novelty accounts are "OK" at Reddit and 99% of them only decrease quality. It'd be nice for them not to be "OK" here.
TL;DR - A lot of traffic on the Internet comes from search engine bots like Google’s and Yahoo’s indexing pages. If Google’s index was open, search engines could share each other’s resources and not have to repeatedly spider pages. This would significantly boost traffic speed and the idea was even supported by Larry Page, one of, Google’s co-founders. Page initially resisted Google going commercial.
TL;DR - An Ars Technica reporter was about to sign an agreement with a new dentist when he noticed that the contract forbade posting any reviews of the dentist online. An organization called Medical Justice is supplying boilerplate agreements to doctors and dentists to put in contracts with new patients like the one previously mentioned in order to help control negative reviews. Doctors, however, may not fully understand what those agreements actually entail. They’re mostly focused on fraudulent negative reviews by non-patients, which privacy laws make difficult to eradicate, but the agreements could have a chilling effect on legitimate patient reviews. Doctors, however can respond by making general comments about their practices, accepting that there will be a few negative reviews, and dealing with complaints made by patients.
