4 | The phenomenon of “troll factories” or “troll farms” operating on the RuNet and beyond to shape the conversations and sentiment online has by now received wide coverage in both Russian and international media. | Nahazo angom-baovao bebe kokoa eo amin'ny fampitam-baovao Rosiana sy iraisampirenena ankehitriny ny firoboroboan'ny “orinasa mpandoto rano” na “toerana mpandoto resaka” miasa ao amin'ny [tontolon'ny] RuNet sy mivoaka hatrany ivelany hamolavolana ny resaka sy ny fihetseham-po an-tserasera. |
5 | In many cases, reporters have relied on testimonies from whistleblowers who work or have worked for one of the alleged “troll factories.” | Amin'ny tranga maro dia niankina tamin'ny fijoroana vavolombelon'ireo mpanapoaka tsiambaratelo miasa na niasa tao amin'ireo lazaina ho “orinasa mpandoto rano” ireo mpanangom-baovao. |
6 | At the end of May a woman named Lyudmila Savchuk announced that she was suing her former employer, Russia's most famous “troll factory,” the Internet Research Agency, located in St. Petersburg. | Tamin'ny faran'ny volana mey,nisy vehivavy iray antsoina hoe Lyudmila Savchuk nanambara fa nitory ny mpampiasa azy teo aloha, ny orinasa mpandoto rano [mpanao trolls amin'ny internet] malaza indrindra ao Rosia, ny Internet Research Agency [Sampam-pikarohana an'Internety] miorina ao St. Petersburg, izy. |
7 | Now her lawyers from human rights organization Team 29 are saying the company has agreed to compensate Savchuk over a labor dispute, in which she accused them of illegal hiring and salary practices. | Ankehitriny ny mpisolovava azy avy ao amin'ny fikambanana mpandala ny zon'olombelona Team 29 no miteny fa nanaiky ny hanonitra an'i Savchuk eo amin'ny lafiny fifandirana arak'asa ny orinasa, satria nampangainy ho manao fomba fiasa sy manome karama tsy ara-dalàna. |
8 | Calling herself a freelance investigative reporter and a civic activist, Savchuk embedded with the “troll factory” on Savushkina street and worked for the office from January 2015 to March 2015 as an undercover “mole.” | Raha milaza tena ho mpanangom-baovao fanadihadiana mahaleo tena sady mpikatroky ny zo sivika i Savchuk dia niditra tao amin'ny “orinasa mpandoto rano [troll]” ao amin'ny lalana Savushkina ary niasa hoan'ny birao hatramin'ny Janoary 2015 ka hatramin'ny Marsa 2015 ho “mpitsikilo miafina.” |
9 | Her aim was to discover how the “factory” was managing offices full of paid staff posing as ordinary citizens online, leaving fake comments on news stories and blogs, and influencing the online discourse. | Ny tanjony dia ny hahita ny fomba fitantanan'ny “orinasa” ireo birao feno olona voakarama milaza tena ho olon-tsotra hametraka hevitra sandoka amin'ireo vaovao sy blaogy, mba hitarihan-dalana ny firesaka an-tserasera. |
10 | Although she was unhappy with the hiring practices, Savchuk said the real purpose of her lawsuit was to force the Internet Research Agency to appear publicly before the law, so that more people could learn about the inner workings of the “troll factory.” | Na dia tsy afa-po tamin'ny fomba fampiasana olona tsy ara-drariny aza izy, dia nilaza i Savchuk fa ny antony nahatonga azy hitory dia ny hanerena ny Internet Research Agency [Sampam-pikarohana an'Internety] hivoaka ampahibemaso eo anatrehan'ny lalàna, mba ho fantatry ny olona maro kokoa ny fomba fiasan'ny “orinasa mpandoto rano [troll].” |
11 | On June 23, the two sides finally met in court. | Tafahoana tao amin'ny fitsarana ihany ny roa tonta tamin'ny 23 jona. |
12 | Shortly after, Savchuk's lawyer, Ivan Pavlov, posted on Facebook that the Internet Research Agency had agreed to compensate Savchuk for unfair hiring practices, and pay her the salary she was due when she was dismissed. | Taoriana kelin'izany dia nanambara tao amin'ny Facebook ny mpisolovavan'i Savchuk, Ivan Pavlov, fa nanaiky ny hanonitra an'i Savchuk noho ny fampiasana olona tsy ara-drariny ny Internet Research Agency [Sampam-pikarohana an'Internety] ary handoa ny karama tokony horaisiny tamin'ny fotoana nandroahana azy. |
13 | The trolls didn't appear in court themselves, but sent a woman lawyer as a sacrifice. | Tsy nipoitra tao amin'ny lapan'ny fitsarana ry “mpandoto rano” [trolls], saingy nandefa vehivavy mpisolovava ho sorona fanavotana. |
14 | The woman lawyer agreed with our claims and offered to pay Lyudmila Savchuk all the necessary compensations. | Nanaiky ny fitakianay ilay vehivavy mpisolovava ary nilaza ny handoa amin'i Lyudmila Savchuk ny sanda rehetra tsy maintsy mipetraka. |
15 | But the power isn't in the money, it's in you know what. | Saingy tsy ao amin'ny vola ny fahefana, efa fantatrao fa ao aminao. |
16 | So, to be continued. | Ka mbola mitohy. |

19 | Pavlov noted that the next steps would be to hold two additional meetings with Internet Research Agency to discuss the terms of the settlement, and said one of the meetings would have to take place in the “troll factory”‘s office on Savushkina street in St. Petersburg. | Nanamarika i Pavlov fa ny dingana manaraka dia ny fanatontosana fihaonana roa fanampiny amin'ny Internet Research Agency [Sampam-pikarohana an'Internety] hiresaka ny fomba fandoavana azy, ary ny iray amin'ny fihaonana dia hotontosaina ao amin'ny biraon'ny “orinasa mpandoto rano [troll]” ao amin'ny lalana Savushkina ao St. Petersburg. |
20 | TJournal reports that the visit to the “troll den” will take place on June 30, and that Savchuk will be accompanied by lawyers and journalists. | Nitatitra ny Tjournal fa hotontosaina amin'ny 30 jona ny fitsidihana ny “zohy fieren'ny mpandoto rano [troll]”, ary hiaraka amin'ny mpisolovava sy mpanao gazety i Savchuk amin'io fotoana io. |
21 | Among other things, representatives of the Internet Research Agency in court claimed that Savchuk was never fired per se, as her contract was still active, and suggested she might want to return to work for the company. | Ankoatra ny zavatra hafa, nilaza tao amin'ny fitsarana ny solontenan'ny Internet Research Agency [Sampam-pikarohana an'Internety] fa tsy voaroaka fotsiny amin'izao i Savchuk, satria mbola mihatra soa aman-tsara ny fifanarahan'asany, ary nanolo-kevitra izy raha te-hiverina hiasa ao amin'ny orinasa izy. |
22 | In turn, Savchuk told TJournal she views this as yet another attempt to stall the inevitable publicity that Internet Research Agency is now facing. | Ho setriny, nilaza tamin'i TJournal i Savchuk fa heveriny ho miezaka ny hanakana ny fielezan'ny lazany tsy azo ihodivirana noho ity raharaha ity ny Internet Research Agency . |
23 | We thought the troll factory representatives would shy away again and wouldn't show up. | Nieritreritra izahay fa ho menatra ny solontenan'ny orinasan'ny troll [mpandoto rano an-tserasera] ka tsy sahy hiseho. |
24 | But they did show up and have suddenly agreed to the demands of my suit. | Saingy niseho ry zareo ary nanaiky tampoka ny takiako ao amin'ny fitoriana. |
25 | As my lawyer says, they picked the lesser evil. | Hoy ny nolazain'ny mpisolovavako hoe naka ny lavitry ny ratsy indrindra ry zareo. |
26 | So we really did pull them out into the limelight. | Ka dianataonay niseho teo amin'ny tara-pahazavana tokoa ry zareo. |
27 | The fact that they showed up, that the name Internet Research LLC has been spoken, means the troll factory really exists. | Ny fisehoan-dry zareo, ny niresahana ny Fikarohana an'Internety LLC, no midika fa misy tokoa ny orinasa mpandoto rano an-tserasera [troll]. |
