But few people know that the USSR had its own, illegal Clubhouse. In the 80s, many residents of Leningrad anonymously communicated in the so-called "telephone air" — an abnormal mode of the PBX, when everyone who called a secret number got into a group voice chat, where dozens and even hundreds of people could talk at the same time. About a social network that appeared long before the Internet, and why voice communication is in demand again now — in our new issue!
