[Russian Internet censorship] I'm fed up with Roskomnadzor

In a diversion from my usual topic, I wrote a post about how a group of mental health activists were detained today in Moscow: https://pastebin.com/Df9AV2Hf

They were a bunch of diverse people, but I really wanted to draw attention to the problem of discrimination in Russia here.

Any verification of this? I've googled a little and I've found one or two news articles alluding to it, including meduza.io[0] one in the pastebin.

What kind of verification are you looking for? Everything in the paste is true. And it's not like it's a surprise or anything, it's been going on for many years.

Okay, I posted an addendum about it, as always I've missed some crucial info (namely, the locations of where to monitor RKN's anti-constitutional internet censorship actions).

Now guys, I'd ask you to repost it and use this info as you see fit. Even if most of my efforts would be in vain, the world should know better about stuff that's going on here.

I can vouch since I live here too (sadly), there are barely any news of this worldwide and even internally, but consumer-wise it is complete shitfest - PSN is blocked, part of Google is blocked; amazon, akamai, digitalocean - partly blocked and the pool of blocked addresses grows every day.

And they almost blocked Google's push services. As of now, they appear to have reverted to point bans, and unbanned almost 3 million of Amazon's addresses.

But some 17 million (!!) is still banned.

I calmed down a little, had the time to explain what really happened, so here's this post. It's a bit long but a lot more structured and detailed this time.
