Max ResingExploring #DNS4EU a little further and throwing myself back to research I was involved in a while back (https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.05638), surprisingly shows that the #European #resolver shows no problems resolving the sanctioned entities of #RussiaToday and #Sputniknews.
An oversight? I would be less surprised if the unfiltered #resolvers resolve the domain names, but even the protective ones resolve to the correct domain names, revealing that #DNSblocking is not applied on #EU cyber-resiliency flagship project.

Internet Sanctions on Russian Media: Actions and Effects
As a response to the Russian aggression against Ukraine, the European Union (EU), through the notion of "digital sovereignty", imposed sanctions on organizations and individuals affiliated with the Russian Federation that prohibit broadcasting content, including online distribution. In this paper, we interrogate the implementation of these sanctions and interpret them as a means to translate the union of states' governmental edicts into effective technical countermeasures. Through longitudinal traffic analysis, we construct an understanding of how ISPs in different EU countries attempted to enforce these sanctions, and compare these implementations to similar measures in other western countries. We find a wide variation of blocking coverage, both internationally and within individual member states. We draw the conclusion that digital sovereignty through sanctions in the EU has a concrete but distinctly limited impact on information flows.
