Armenia: Prolific blogger suspended on LiveJournal

Kornelij Glas [RU] details the case of Pigh, an Armenian blogger prolific in the mutual tit-for-tat online information war with Azerbaijan and Turkey. Speaking to Global Voices, Pigh says that his blog on LiveJournal was suspended on 8 October after some Azerbaijanis made complaints to the site's administration which included allegations of hacking activities, a claim the blogger denies. Having managed to download his old posts and comments despite the suspension, he also says that he will upload them and start posting again on a new blog probably from next week.
