Still so many Russians in cs2 and dota. Explain??
Alternate payment methods. As far as I know, only PayPal and credit cards don't work. Russians have their own methods, even by just buying gift cards from a marketplace (edit:removed url)
I hate everything that's being done. A large part of my family lives there, and just getting them on a call is now not an easy task.
(I mean, I hate Putin and his government for many other things too. Restricted Internet perhaps is the least of their crimes, but this least is getting longer and longer and longer...)
Obtain a Kasachstan or Byelorus sim card, install it on a burner phone with the Max messenger for minimal overall pain.
I won't use Max under any circumstances and won't recommend it to my family. Testing out SimpleX for now.
I have no interest nor trust in Max, but as long as the Cheburnet Wars continue it will be the easiest way for nontechnical people to make voice calls.
The whole torrent industry bouta take a huge hit

It's crazy how these major tent poles of the modern internet - Facebook, Google, Twitter, and Microsoft - are all centered in the United States, but never bare any responsibility for the malicious traffic on their networks.
The craziest part to me is that instead of dealing with bot traffic so they can tell advertisers actual people are seeing their ads, they're just adding age verification.
Age verification that will, itself, be quickly subverted and spoofed. And which they won't bother to manage internally, because that's hard
But the article isn't about India
"AI warfare" or, "AI is stealing all the jobs of our army of international scammers, that we allow to operate freely as long as they don't target Russians!"
Use meshcore, ham radio
This is terrible advice. They can and will track you down. Only way this might be viable is if everyone turns off their transmissions and the transmitter changes location constantly or is deployed via drone sporadically.
