Berdyaev.com Has Been Hijacked
The website that the late Fr. Stephen Janos -- an Orthodox priest, Russian translator, and respected penfriend -- dedicated to Nikolai Berdyaev has been hijacked by, of all things, a Vietnamese gambling cartel.
Should you visit the site today, all you find is a picture of Berdyaev followed by a lot of gambling-related nonsense written in what I assume to be Vietnamese.
Fr. Janos's son -- who has managed the site since his father passed away -- is apparently working to regain control of the property. I hope he is successful in that endeavor. Berdyaev.com was not only an excellent source of Berdyaev material, but stood as a testament to the site's creator, who invested much time and energy into translating many of Berdyaev's lesser known and/or untranslated works.
The unfortunate development has forced me to remove Berdyaev.com from the blog roll, but I will return it to its rightful place the second the site returns to its rightful owners.
