Ivan, on the other hand GitHub are not a bunch of freedom fighters, they are a company that have a responsibility to their customers and some of those customers live or traveling in Russia and are affected by this blockage. If you're a Russian citizen, first of all you should be the one fighting against censorship by educating others, by going to protests and so on. Especially since this is now happening all over the place. I know how it feels like. I'm a Romanian and I felt powerless countless of times, especially in recent years when the local lefties have been on a power grabbing race, with countless of abuses and bad decisions, also leaving a hole in our budget due to electoral alms, but lo and behold, they've lost the presidential race by a brutal margin, even though they were the winners of all polls and they also control the media. What happened is that a large percentage of people that never voted showed up this time. People called their families, people talked on Facebook, people took it to the streets. Just like the protests from a year and a half ago that stopped a corrupted and damaging gold mining project. I'm telling you, it works - and btw, mass-media is in general corrupted, which is why the Internet is such a disruptive force.
