Well, there's been a bit of international pressure because of the Libya thing, and also they've been looking a bit dictatorial because Aleksey Navalny (major figure in the opposition even though he's not an elected official, was the one who coined the phrase "the party of crooks and liars" for United Russia, is the guy who's usually being targeted whenever LJ gets DDOS'd again) is under indictment for embezzlement in ludicrously trumped-up charges. Like, blatant "we want you out of the way" thing. They might be trying something in advance of dumping Navalny in jail.
