Website that publishes private information of "the enemies of Ukraine". |
Myrotvorets (also Mirotvorets), translated: 'Peacemaker', is a Kyiv-based website that publishes personal information, including addresses of people who are considered "enemies of Ukraine".[1][2][3]
History
In 2016 the website published an Excel document that contained names and contact details of 4,508 journalists and other media representatives (including cameramen, producers, stringers, translators, drivers) who have worked in areas under the control of separatists in eastern Ukraine.[4][5][6] The logic behind the publication is intimidation.[7] Children that write the wrong things online get their personal information published as well.[8]
A number of assassinations of journalists in Ukraine since the 2014 coup,[9][10] may directly be linked to this website. In April 2015, Myrotvorets published the home addresses of Ukrainian writer Oles Buzina and former Verkhovna Rada parliamentarian Oleg Kalashnikov, just days before they were assassinated.[11]
