Russia's Federal Information Technologies and Mass Media Supervision Agency announced on February 25 that it has imposed a partial access block on Facebook and many other platforms across the country. After that, Meta announced that it closed the fake Russian accounts registered on Facebook. Now, a statement came from Russia to end the discussion.
Facebook is completely blocked in Russia!
Russia's communications agency Roskomnadzor announced today that access to Facebook has been completely blocked in Russia. In the report shared with the public, Facebook's restrictions on media organizations by the Russian state and 26 cases of discrimination allegedly made by the company since 2020 were shown.
Of course, this situation actually occurred as a result of Russia's aggression, which was launched as a so-called military operation on Ukraine, but turned into a war from the very first day. Of course, holding the strings with the power he received from the parliament, Putin both declared martial law in his country and closed the news channels that said this was a war. So this approach to the Facebook side did not come as a surprise.
Of course, Russia did not stop there. It has imposed control restrictions and obstructions on almost all communication channels that we can think of. He even threatened Wikipedia. After that, the Russian parliament convened this morning. He then passed a new law that imposes up to 15 years in prison for the spread of fake news.
Broadcasting organizations such as the BBC have announced that they will suspend their journalism activities in the country as soon as possible, as this actually means that anyone who contradicts Putin's words will be sentenced to 15 years in prison. On the other hand, many technology platforms have already stopped their services in Russia. He announced that he has blocked Russian news channels such as Sputnik indefinitely in the EU.
