⚡️Statement of Roskomsvoboda: Sanctions of foreign IT-companies against Russian users only help censorship ❗️ Access to the Internet and electronic means of communication is vital, because only this helps Russians to receive objective information and make the right decisions. The exclusion of Russians from the global Web deprives of reliable external information and in the long run will become an obstacle to the peaceful resolution of the humanitarian crisis. Today, many technology companies located in the jurisdictions of the US, EU and other countries are carrying out mass shutdowns of Russian user accounts. This process involves domain registrars, software developers, gaming platforms, cryptocurrency exchanges, backbone providers, cloud and other digital services. Such actions will not improve in the situation in Ukraine, but will significantly worsen the situation with respect for fundamental human rights in the Russian Federation. ➡️ roskomsvoboda.org/post/za…rf-akkov ➡️ Roskomsvoboda’s statement is available here in Russian, English and French.
