M100 Alumnus Roman Melnyk: “I fight against Russian censorship”

11 March 2022. “I stayed in Ukraine and joined the so-called IT Army of Ukraine. Personally, I fight against Russian censorship. People in Russia often don’t know that their soldiers are devastating Ukrainian cities, firing rockets at civilians and killing Ukrainian people. I post on Facebook publications of Russian soldiers surrendering in Ukraine and begging for help, and I direct these posts at Russian users. The goal is to demoralise them and for them to stop sending troops to my country.

Another front is Wikipedia. Together with my cyber-fighters from the Wikipatrol initiative, we have created and updated many important Wikipedia articles about Russian propaganda, ideology and war crimes in the current war between Ukraine and Russia. I receive a lot of moral support from friends around the world and I am grateful for any help.
