It would be great, but think about it for a second. Russian bots and trolls that are operated by the government will still exist, it’s not like they would cease trying to spread misinformation or destabilizing opinions. So that won’t change at all. This would primarily affect the people in the country who would now be unable to see real news or learn things the government doesn’t want them to.
I’m all for giving Russia the finger, but I do fear that it won’t actually make anything better for the rest of us and would just make the people worse off.
I mean, if no normal citizen can access the outside internet then we will know for sure that any connection coming out of Russia has to be a bot. So that would make blocking them much more easier.
Cool, let them, so what?

“Thinking for a second”? You are posting this on the Web. Thinking is for losers.

I hope I can block whole ASNs originated from orcs land, so I can block those too. Or at least majority of them.

Because I need outside access to get the hell out of this godforsaken piece of dirt
Millions of Russian ctizens having their internet cut off isn’t a big deal?
