You seem to know what you're talking about. I've read up a few sources in Russian, and all of them say there were breaches of law related to commerce and the company was warned, but none of the articles actually mentions the actual cause. One article (http://euroradio.fm/ru/sayt-onlinerby-isklyuchayut-iz-beloru...) mentions showing prices on the site. Was the site conducting ecommerce illegally, and are you not allowed to open up an ecommerce site without prior registration with the government? I certainly don't see anything about a 'new law' as the HN title suggests.
