The huge wave of attacks is creating problems for Russia that is fearing massive cyberattacks that could be conducted by nation-state actors is preparing for disconnection from the global Internet. The disconnection from the Internet will allow Russia to apply massive censorship limiting access to information for the Russian people.

Russia is preparing to disconnect from the global internet, limiting access to information for the Russian people. That means censorship, and we are totally against censorship of any kind. So… let's turn up the pressure! pic.twitter.com/4EhuTX9jRB
