The article doesn't describe how the ban is technically enforced. I'm not aware of a great Russian firewall so I speculate it's either self-enforced (LinkedIn agreed to reject users who enter Russia as their country), or enforced by ISPs.
The first is unlikely, the second is easily bypassed.
Does anyone here know?
- betaby 10y agoYes. There are many smaller firewalls of Russia. Every ISP by the law has to maintain the system on their expenses and obligated to periodically download state ban list. Various ISP use various technique from simple ACL to DPI in various combinations. Here is current black list https://reestr.rublacklist.net/ https://reestr.rublacklist.net/ Need to say that gov agencies periodically check ISPs if they indeed ban sites and re-offenders are fined.
- i336_ 10y agoThat is a very interesting website. How is it generated? Bruteforce access attempts?
- betaby 10y agoMostly ISP sysadmins reports their list downloaded from roskomnadzor + reports from users about blocked sites, since some bans a communicated by direct orders and are not shown in roskomnadzor lists, there are few and mostly temporary but they exist.
