LJ user zoringer notes [1] [RUS] that the Russian parliament, the State Duma, is to decide on further curtailing freedom of assembly in the country, now limiting the number of people gathering to a mere three. The proposal is believed to hinder alternative methods of protest and demonstrations as e.g. flashmobs.
