InterNYET: A History Of The Russian Internet - Premiering September 5

InterNYET: A History Of The Russian Internet (Холивар: История Рунета) is a seven-episode series by Russian journalist Andrey Loshak that takes a look at the development of the Russian Internet, or RuNet, and how it has changed over time. From the start, RuNet’s development has reflected social and political changes within Russian society itself: the liberalism of the 1990s, the economic boom of the early 2000s, and, more recently, the introduction of strict Internet censorship laws. InterNYET documents the main milestones in Internet technology growth within Russia since the late Soviet era and profiles the country’s most prominent Web evangelists and personalities.
