As it has already been noted in the issue’s comments - this move won’t affect Putin’s supporters (yes, they exist in Russia and they aren’t just a few freaks), it won’t even affect the majority of those living in Russia. The most affected group will be young-middle aged educated people who are interacting with the rest of the world (ad opposed to the rest who can be fed any BS by state TV) and who are mostly in opposition to Putin’s actions. So it does more harm than good. Roskomnadzor has started ”restricting”/throttling traffic to FB and probably other big international websites/social networks, so the options to get more independent info about the reality are getting scarce in Russia. |

When a state behaves inappropriately, it is the responsibility of it's citizens to correct it and prevent it from happening again.
This applies equally to the transgressions of the United States as it does to Russia.
