I remember them responding to a couple antipiracy lawsuits in… India I think? they also make an exception for ISIS-related channels. But mostly all, yes.

they did ban it, and everyone still used it (Telegram was good at evading the bans back then, but eventually Roskomnadzor became decent at banning it), and then they unbanned it, whatever that means

I use sway on my phone, had to add a secondary menu bar with a few keys for stuff like opening rofi, but it works perfectly fine otherwise

Russia banned Telegram, everyone (incl. the government) continued to use it, Russia unbanned Telegram - that’s how it looks from here. A government official told me Telegram being unbanned was just a matter of time when it was still banned.

people always joke about this but defenestration has never been that common in neither the Russian Empire, USSR nor Russian Federation

it receives relatively frequent updates, and it uses love2d (with a native lua module for the AI) so it’s crossplatform.

huh? I’d say email was quite popular there, it was just tied to the mobile operator (and has then been replaced with Line)

The right of self-determination means that a nation may arrange its life in the way it wishes. It has the right to arrange its life on the basis of autonomy. It has the right to enter into federal relations with other nations. It has the right to complete secession. Nations are sovereign, and all nations have equal rights.

again, !bang is for searching using a specific search engine, !!bang is for redirecting to a search engine’s page

!g will search with google

!!g will redirect to google

all ddg bangs are supported to my knowledge, but obviously !bang will only work with the search engines searxng supports

it might work with obfuscation, in general my preferred solution is VPN+proxy, the proxy is used for bypassing the DPI and doesn’t have to adhere to particularly high standards and can be easily swapped, and the VPN is used via the proxy for actually routing L3 traffic

Well, Tor (with bridges) still works just fine, I don’t really know any other “crowdsourced” proxy networks. Telegram isn’t blocked (it used to be, but everyone used it anyway, including people in the government, so they unblocked it), so any info there is freely available. Wireguard and OpenVPN are blocked (even within Russia for some reason), shadowsocks is throttled on certain connections but works fine, and I haven’t extensively tested anything else.

Also, mobile networks are used for testing stricter blocking measures before rolling them out to landline connections

not “any”, but some very specific ones

snowflake is actually blocked quite well

searxng has bangs too

this kind of software is mostly used for tech support, so your option is too hard to setup

I agree that’s a problem, but refresh rate is one of the fingerprinting methods, and resistFingerprinting doesn’t offer finetuning options (except canvas permissions?), which is what prevents me from using it

you can change that in about:config, i think privacy.resistFingerprinting is the culprit
