   Wow. Someone considers https://sputniknews.com so evil that blocking DNS is not enough, but null routing is required.. Works from Japan though.

     @globalc Works from the US as well. The web page doesn't scroll, though, so I can't read their propaganda even if I wanted to 😂

     @globalc Do we know which European carriers are black holing sputniknews.com, and whether they've been ordered to do so by a court order?

     @penguin42 @globalc Uh-oh... If we don't blow up the world with nukes, this war might end in a permanent net split, with Russia, China, and their allies completely disconnected from the West Internet 😞

     @codewiz @globalc The UK regulators are requiring some form of blocking; it's explicitly listed in a letter from Ofcom apparently: https://www.aa.net.uk/etc/news/uk-sanctions-law-aa-and-domain-blocking/
