  1. They must be doing SOMEthing right to get on that list…

  2. суд == court. Nothing exotic there.

  3. WTF. The State is an interesting experiment, too bad that guinea pigs are human beings.

  4. Bitcoin.org but not Coinbase. DERP. Глупо России правительство , выпитый на власти, подпитывается cimputer iliteracy , спотыкаясь aroung и разрушая все шансы , которые они получают , чтобы доминировать.
