Abstract
What characterizes the administrators of group in social media dedicated to social change and protest against institutional injustices? The chapter analyzes the characteristics of the administrators leading the activities for justice for Roman Zadorov as a case study. I will characterize the administrators in terms of age, gender, knowledge, motivation for the activity, time invested in the activity, opinion and more/. I will point out the phenomenon of "ad hoc activism" embodied in the activity: the background of the administrators is very heterogeneous, most of them have no background in activism and the involvement in the activity does not cause them to be involved in activism elsewhere; They gather "ad hoc" for activities for justice Zadorov.
