As the era changed from the Meiji to the Taisho era, the existence of Santa Claus seems to have become quite widespread among Japanese children. There it was in the December 1914 issue of the children's magazine Kodomo no Tomo. An old man with a white beard wearing a red hat, red clothing and a wide belt around his waist. This was the appearance of our familiar "Santa Claus." In 1928, the Asahi Shimbun carried an article stating that "Christmas has now become an annual event in Japan, and Santa Claus has become a proper part of Japanese children," showing that Christmas had become as mainstream as it is today.

Andrey, a Russian entrepreneur living in Brazil who, fearing retaliation, asked that NPR not use his last name, said Telegram has become one of the few places Russians can access independent news about the war.

Meanwhile, the company which owns Telegram is registered in the British Virgin Islands. Update March 8, 2022: EFF has clarified that Channels and Groups are not fully encrypted, end-to-end, updated our post to link to Telegram’s FAQ for Cloud and Secret chats, updated to clarify that auto-delete is available for group and channel admins, and added some additional links. "The inflation fire was already hot and now with war-driven inflation added to the mix, it will grow even hotter, setting off a scramble by the world’s central banks to pull back their stimulus earlier than expected," Chris Rupkey, chief economist at FWDBONDS, wrote in an email. "A spike in inflation rates has preceded economic recessions historically and this time prices have soared to levels that once again pose a threat to growth." Official government accounts have also spread fake fact checks. An official Twitter account for the Russia diplomatic mission in Geneva shared a fake debunking video claiming without evidence that "Western and Ukrainian media are creating thousands of fake news on Russia every day." The video, which has amassed almost 30,000 views, offered a "how-to" spot misinformation.
