Föderation EN Fr 09.08.2024 19:25:14 ⚠️ Confirmed: Metrics show #Russia has restricted Signal messaging app backends on most internet providers; regulator Roskomnadzor states that the ban has been imposed to prevent Signal's use for "extremist" purposes; the app remains usable with "censorship circumvention" enabled

Föderation DE Fr 09.08.2024 19:30:02 @netblocks props to Signal for having such good countermeasures in place! |

Föderation DE Fr 09.08.2024 21:15:56 @jonas I don't think Roskomnadzor has caught up yet, they're likely going to set up a set of fake devices, enable this option there, and just ban whatever proxy Signal connects to. This how it was with Telegram back in the day ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |

Föderation EN Fr 09.08.2024 20:34:37 @netblocks What were these "extremist purposes"? |

Föderation IT Fr 09.08.2024 20:36:46 @netblocks do you have links to more info? Looking for “censorship cisrumvention” on signal’s website turns up very little, and nothing applicable to Russia |
