Noooo! My sports streams!
It will be a dark day for piracy…
Luckily, libgen and sci hub are not based there
tbf the internet is going to consist mostly of 3 things in the future:
- propaganda
- scientific information
- funny cat videos
So I guess it’s not really a surprise that this is happening.
You mean the clearnet and you put advertising under propaganda, which is fair, but advertising I feel is a distinctly heinous thing we could hate all on its own!
Tell me you use an ad blocker without telling me.

I was gonna say you forgot porno but then
scientific information
funny “cat” videos
cat as in pussy
And dog videos. *tips fedora*
The worst (to me, anyway) part is that a LOT of pirate stuff will disappear if the russian internet gets gated
Meh, loads of other places
Usenet still exists.
Any good starting point or worthwhile server that can be recommended? I don’t mind paying, I’m paying more for the arr than for any of the subscriptions, I just dont want to have to deal with the media company bullshit anymore
Gotta pay for access to any worthwhile server
Yeah - and I’m Dolly Parton. Everything that Russian press puts out is lies. There are only two reasons why Russia isn’t an abandoned strip mall: Oil and the Internet.
This sucks, I’ve met so many very cool and interesting Russian people. The internet is meant to connect people not box them in an echo chamber.
yeah, you met two cool russian people. Millions of older family members are being bombarded with propaganda from the rest of the russians that are less cool.
And disconnecting these people from the internet will help them how… exactly? Oh right you don’t care about them because they have different beliefs.
Big lan party But I’m sure there will be outside content somehow
Someone will be smuggling microfiche behind the iron curtain…wait wrong century.
Xis puppet is learning another trick from its master
So turning it into an intranet.
As a queer person in a place currently under russian control, I find a lot of the comments in favour of the censorship problematic. Being gay in public is illegal here, so a lot of our queer people find communities on the Internet. Being cut off from those would be terrible.

Sorry you’ve been saddled with that, friend. I hope things get better in Russia (or Ukraine, Transnistria, or Georgia, think that covers all the places they occupy) in your lifetime
I hope I’ll escape before it collapses, otherwise life will be unnecessarily difficult for a decade or two
I got your 6.
Oh I bet you do… 😉
Plus, there are things in Russia that I want. Like Starsector
Lol peace suckas
Russian Federation? M-more, more like, like… Russian De-Federation, am I right?
I’m only familiar with the magnificent russian defenestration rate.
It’s as close to 1 as a country can get.
Russia tests cutting
itselftheir citizens off from the rest of the internetThe state would certainly continue to interfere with the rest.
If everybody but the state is blocked, then any connections from Russia would be pretty fucking obviously the state. Honestly, that’s the best thing that could happen, since it would make figuring out what they are doing easy as fuck. But I have no doubt they are smart enough to just send their teams to China or something like North Korea does.
In the long term is will fuck over their ability to hack stuff. You’re essentially ruining people’s ability to develop talent at tech. Even if u want to train them in it as military, it would be new to them.
Nah, they’d just do what NK does and pull out the “brightest” and train them in cyber
Gladly, no more fucking Putin Bots.
Unfortunately the bots are state sponsored so they will be allowed to bypass this.
Are you really that naive?
You know ips can be filtered to still have access right?
Their bots will access the net

If that were true, it should be easy to block all the crypto attacks coming from Russia, right?
Even now, hospitals (for example) could just whitelist their own country IPs, block Russian ones, and bam! No more Russian crypto ransom attacks right?
Wait, why haven’t they just done that already? Could it be that IT teams are already taking this precaution but attackers, especially ones with state funding, can route their traffic through IPs not attributed to Russia?
Again, are you that naive?
You make a lot of assumptions about who down voted what.
Here is a hint. You are the first person I down voted in this thread.
I’m sure they will still be around.
