Ukraine’s President Zelensky has warned Russian propagandists they “will be held responsible for complicity with war crimes.” In Russia, access to social media sites like Facebook and Twitter is now restricted. But Carole Cadwalladr says that trying to ban information is “like trying to ban oxygen.” A journalist for The Guardian, she exposed the harvesting of personal Facebook data for political campaigns, now known as the Facebook-Cambridge Analytica data scandal. Cadwalladr speaks with Hari Sreenivasan about Putin’s information war on Ukraine and the West.

Originally aired on March 11, 2022.
