A suspicious haste? Draft Law 6688 (and the Ukrainian Internet)

Almost exactly one year ago, Draft Bill 6688 was submitted to the Verkhovna Rada.
It gained the immediate ire of media, sections of civil society, and perhaps most notably the then Ombudsman for Human Rights in Ukraine, Valerie Lutskovska (who was a pretty good HR Ombudsman).
Recently another attempt to get this Draft Law onto the Verkhovna Rada agenda occurred – and failed, gathering insufficient votes.
However, there appears to be a sudden sense of urgency from somewhere on high to get this Bill from Draft to statute book.
