LinkedIn didn't just "get blocked" out of the blue. They got blocked after many warnings and plenty of time during which they refused to take basic steps to comply with the laws of a sovereign nation. Just set up some servers in a Russian datacenter and be done with it! But instead they blew it off, or created the impression of blowing it off, by going running to the Russian bureaucrats on the last day -- as if the whole thing were a big surprise!

If you wanted to insult them, show them you didn't take them seriously and didn't make a plan to comply with their laws, I can't think of a better way to do it than going to them on the last day to ask for more time. If I were those bureaucrats I would take especial relish in cutting them off. (And that's aside from the fact that it's a worthless site in the first place.)

Sometimes when you get Tased it's because of crooked cops, but most of the time it's because you're being an ass, disregarding the laws of the people, despite many warnings, and not taking simple steps to comply.
