As there is no an easy/gentle procedure for changing the handle on server, I will have soon to create a new account and manually re-follow people here under new name.
Reason for this is need to improve privacy of my online presence and fix mistake I made by doing again facebook us trained to do for years.
With news coming about persecutions of people for Facebook posts as part of #TerrorInGeorgia amid #GeorgiaProtest #GeorgiaProtests I can't live in "I have nothing to hide" mode anymore.

Day 369 of the #GeorgiaProtests
Protesters showed up masks today—after BBC revealed that Georgian Dream used a WWI-era chemical agent last year.
Covering your face at a protest is now punishable by 15 days in jail, up to 2 years for repeat “offenses” (4 years for “organizers”).

"Georgia's authorities used a World War One-era chemical weapon to quell anti-government protesters last year, evidence gathered by the BBC suggests.
Demonstrators against the Georgian government's suspension of its European Union accession bid have complained of other symptoms too - shortness of breath, coughing, and vomiting that lasted for weeks.
The BBC World Service has spoken to chemical weapons experts, whistleblowers from Georgia's riot police, and doctors, and found the evidence points to the use of an agent that the French military named "camite".

In 2023 Kobakhidze called the BBC “free media” when it attacked Kezerashvili. Now that the BBC investigates Georgian Dream, GD calls it a “deep-state propaganda weapon,” accuses it of “dirty orders,” and threatens to sue it in international courts.

Georgia just became the first country in Europe where a WW1-era chemical weapon was used against peaceful protesters. According to a BBC investigation, water cannons were laced with camite - a toxic compound from 1930s with long-lasting, dangerous effects. [1/5]
