Russia bans Wikipedia
- Sami_Lehtinen 11y agoOne page != Whole site.
- r721 11y ago>Last week, Roskomnadzor threatened that banning one article on Wikipedia would result in the complete blocking of the website, insofar as it uses https protocol. “In the event that [Wikipedia] refuses to comply with the court’s ruling," the agency said in an announcement, "Roskomnadzor will block the webpage on Russian territory using the registry of illegal information. In this case, insofar as Wikipedia has decided to function on the basis of https, which doesn’t allow restricting access to individual pages on its site, the entire website would be blocked.” Wikipedia refused to comply.
