Russia temporarily restricts access to the global network to test its 'sovereign Internet' - Lemmy.world

Oh I bet that’s a real fun version. I want on…
I bet nothing worked as usual
Truly a sign of Russian confidence! /s
My thought is that this is so they can some kind of crippling attach on global internet infrastructure, without themselves being affected
This gives everyone a great opportunity to filter out all the IP’s that belong to the nefarious element in Russia as they would, no doubt, remain connected.
I think it should be a bit worrying for people outside russia too. This is literal practice for a world war scenario. We can meme all you want but I don’t like seeing countries crossing items in that checklist.
Would this not be similar to China…although…what are other items do you need to cross off before going to world war? Asking for…ahh… A friend…
I bet the troll farms still have full access
From what I've read, the troll farms mostly operate funded by Russia but are physically located outside of Russia. For example, Macedonia had quite a few.
Don’t shit where you eat I guess

Fun fact: 20% of Russian do not have an indoor toilet.

That is not a joke BTW…

I’d like to subscribe to more Russian fun facts
I feel like the 70ft woman fact is out of place. Just doesn’t fit the “I guess it’s technically true” vibe.
How do I hide these images?
KiwiTheBigBoss, one of the most well known Russian shills on Reddit was Vietnamese.
Please help me out here
Please share everything you know about kiwi
Just read through his history?
Theres nothing there, what do you know about him? please help
This shit is weird, dude. That’s all I know about him, he lives in Vietnam and either loves Russia or is paid to post for them.

In Hungary, Fidesz tried to impose an internet tax. That was the last time, when the opposition actually happened to get things done.

I wonder what will happen in Russia once all those people lose their access to entertainment, communication, etc...

Russia trying to emulate North Korea even more.
I was gonna say, are they trying to speedrun becoming North Korea?
