A Russian fashion influencer identified as Veronika Loginova suggested via social media post that she might end up in jail for six years for using Instagram. Reportedly, a Moscow court banned Instagram and Facebook in March during a crackdown on western social media giants. The 18-year-old took to her Instagram profile, which has around 555K followers, sharing excerpts from the government-sent notice. Vice News reported that Ms Loginova was charged with "extremist activities."
