To the people thinking this means Russia will no longer be able to interfere with other countries over the internet: you are probably mistaken. Disinformation teams will still be connected to the internet. All this will mean is Russians having even less exposure to the world outside of what little Vladolf wants them to see.
It will probably make the European CS2 servers less toxic though.
How are we going to get more treasures like “Blending in with the Russians”?
It’s not about what Russians can get from the outside, it’s more about what they can get to the outside.
I think the idea is to have some capacity to temporarily preserve some connectivity, while mowing down protesters or something like that.
They are doing such exercises for like 10 years btw.
But when the war in Ukraine stops with some “mission accomplished” ceasefire, there will likely be more violent signs of popular disagreement with Putin. Because, well, people with combat experience will come back. Some of them to ask for money on the streets, some of them to abuse their relatives and neighbors, and some of them to do crime, and some of them probably to stir shit up.
Wouldn’t it collapse their economy? Like how many Russians are digital sex workers selling content to the rest of the world? And doesn’t a shitton of money flow into Russia via ransomware
Shh. Just smile and wave.

I think those will move somewhere with Internet connectivity.
Russian Federation? M-more, more like, like… Russian De-Federation, am I right?
- Again.
They do this every few years.

They’re really into cable cutting these days. Maybe we should help.
Noooo! My sports streams!
This is a sad day
Good fucking riddance. (No offense cool innocent Russian people.)
What makes you think the worst parts won’t still get through or be allowed through…like troll farms or hacking groups?
Yeah - and I’m Dolly Parton. Everything that Russian press puts out is lies. There are only two reasons why Russia isn’t an abandoned strip mall: Oil and the Internet.
Then who will post on reddit?
Big lan party But I’m sure there will be outside content somehow
