Russia's communications watchdog plans to block Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) from March 1 next year, a Russian senator for the ruling United Russia party said on Tuesday.
They had anywhere from 115 months to 19 months, depending on where you start counting, to make up their minds about who’s at fault in this war. If this much time isn’t enough…
Oh yeah a nation that spies on everything and arrests anyone who disagrees with Putin sure is gonna revolt.
Blaming a nation of people who are unable to change their government with voting or revolution doesn’t help them. It makes you look like someone who’d blame all Japanese in America for Pearl Harbor.
Their options are not express free thought to a nation that kills its state officials when they are done being useful, or be buried near those officials in an unmarked grave.
The same logic applies to Americans in 2004. Not every american agreed with the Iraq invasion, but I guess Bush did all Americans must be removed from the Great equalizer of the Internet.
Hey, I’m not blaming all Japanese in America for Pearl Harbor, I’m blaming all Japanese in Japan for Pearl Harbor.
If you cannot express your opinion under the threat of death (but more likely, if you are a normal person and not a politician, a slap on the wrist or in worst case jail time), does your opinion really matter?
I have nothing to say about Iraq invasion except that one invasion for dumb reasons and shitty intelligence make all invasions for dumb reasons justified I guess.
I’m confused whether you see the entire people as only one individual? Very extreme view to say “if they can’t dominate forget anyone opposing or evading oppression, as well as chances for contrary information transmission”.
Continuing to question is important for when chances arise. There’s also activism and guerilla sabotage. That’s more than ineffective questioning.
How does VPN blocking that you support help? It does the opposite.
Good
This is in no way good. It only serves to brainwash the Russian people.

Also, please explain how you want people to question the government, but support that very same government banning ways to find info to question it?
You in your other comment say “a nation of people who are unable to change their government with voting or revolution”.
Under this definition, questioning government is going to achieve what, exactly?

How is crying for more government control good?
Less good russians online whining how “sanctions and entry restrictions to EU are bad for those who don’t support the war, actually”.
