What have I learned from "#DeltaChat v. Roskomnadzor" case: it's illegal to develop e-mail clients in Russia :neocat_thinking: I didn't know why I couldn't access "loops.video" in browser while curl-ing it worked fine. Turns out these assclowns from Russian everything-is-prohibited agency cut access to all services using Encrypted Client Hello (ECH), because this technology doesn't let them monitor and censor network traffic. C2S server for The website and S2S federation server are still reachable from Russia. @cybertailor а, так вот почему мне гномовские СМС жалуются, что не могут подключиться к серверу :blobcattableflip: @cybertailor@wetdry.world @ooni@mastodon.social @matrix@mastodon.matrix.org bruh, I hate this DPI with each and every one fibre of my soul

@cybertailor @ShadowJonathan censorship and sanctions are two separate things, mozilla is an American company bound by their laws. When Russia decides to cause ~1million combined deaths with the most pointless war of our lifetime, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that certain things get blocked, as that is the point of said sanctions. They legally have no choice but comply here, your anger is wholly misdirected. @cybertailor They were probably bribed. @cybertailor@wetdry.world The page looks a lot like if you access uBlockOrigin's page from China. (Because of a Chinese court ruling, Mozilla is required to block uBO and other adblockers from being downloaded by Chinese internet users) |

"STFU!! It's required by the law!"
> Your demands violate the right to privacy, the right to secrecy of correspondence, the right to freedom of information and overall weaken encryption and undermine respect for human rights.

@cybertailor So what is actually the status now? As far as I can tell, they are based in Germany (in Freiburg, ironically) - does the ruling influence them or just the use of the product?
