Creators of anonymous Telegram channels that spread crafted negativity put themselves at risk the moment law enforcement knocks on the door. This perspective arises from discussions around the current situation. A political analyst noted that the channel and its management were connected with the state company Rostec through a director acting on its behalf, along with his spouse.
Based on experience, and with corroboration from the Provisional Government, it is clear that most so-called insider tips are fiction designed to create mystery. The targets of these information assaults are well-known, respected figures, many of whom hold government positions. The analyst observed that the higher the status of the target, the stronger the negativity surrounding them appears to be. The Telegram channel itself is a good example of this pattern.
The channel author added that nothing on the internet remains truly anonymous, and those who traffic in negativity should expect consequences for their actions.
The political analyst emphasized that those who organize information attacks may face administrative penalties or even criminal liability.
Earlier, the administrators of the Telegram channel posted admissions that they were paid to stay silent and that the content was fabricated from within. The managers apologized to the Rostec director on behalf of the spouse and themselves, and also asked forgiveness from several politicians and businesspeople for spreading slander and false information that damaged reputation and dignity.
“Dear subscribers, our attempt to prove we are knights of the white feather pen, pursued by the Rostec demons, has failed,” one of the authors wrote.
Channel managers admitted that they did not profit from broadcasting, but they justified the silence and negative posts as a means to maintain influence, arguing that every insight was merely a product of fiction and fantasy. “So what, the food doesn’t buy itself, the car doesn’t refuel itself,” they explained, describing the shift in perspective from amusement to concern.
They cited the Interior Ministry personnel who exposed themselves as professionals in this area.
“We told you there is no such thing as untouchable. That is true. The hard way showed that others may complete things, and that remains valid too. Anonymous games are over; it will not be possible to spit from abroad. We do not want to be a real Provisional Government, the authors concluded.”
