is that a wildcard subdomain that takes the subdomain and does `s/-/./g` to proxy and translate it? Or is this only for russian media-related websites you probably don't want to be visiting directly?

  That's google translate. The original is in Russian.
- pieter_mj 3y ago
  Yes, it's a wildcard subdomain, works for every site.

  Do you mean `s/./-/g`?

Oh it’s from the Russian government, so you KNOW it’s trustworthy.

  If you talk to certain old people - like my parents, one is 70 and other will hit the mark this November - they might say, "Russia? Like, the KGB?" and then I can quote Robbie Coltrane's Valentin in The World is Not Enough... "Now it's FSB. Federal Security Bureau. Same friendly service with a new name."

  Name me one government that is trustworthy.
  - NotYourLawyer 3y ago
    There are degrees of trustworthiness.
    - saiya-jin 3y ago
      Nope. Either there is trust, period, or there isn't. In this case there simply isn't, and if you are non-US person then US government definitely 100% falls into that category. We don't have same human rights you have as per US laws god dammit, how can we talk about any trust here. Our interest are momentarily aligned is the best we can go for. Which is not the end of the world in any means, but lets be factual and act accordingly.

        That's a classic false dilemma. While the US government is not perfect by far and has MANY flaws, the Russian government is an entirely different level of corrupt.

        US corruption is a worldwide operation effort. Russia's is at best significant on Eurasia and US. It will take Putin some time to reach US level.
        myko 3y ago
        Putin will never reach that level because he's destroyed his soft power and set Russia back decades.
