That’s always a good sign
If anyone could pass this on to Putin, please:
“Mr. Putin, both Steam and non-Steam Western games are radicalizing millions of young Russians with evil Western propaganda. It is of the utmost importance to cut Russians access to western gaming platforms and games. Sincerely, Western gamers.”
Desparation is setting in. Good.
Mango Mussolini takes note.
But that won’t make the Kremlin bots any fewer; so nothing much will change.
Is this implying they previously couldn’t do that
A mobilzation in Russia coming for sure.
Watch Elon and other reps ignoring this, while bashing Europe for having no freedoms.

**Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a law giving security services sweeping powers to cut individuals off from mobile and home internet access, marking a significant tightening of state control over communications.**
The measure grants the [Federal Security Service](https://tvpworld.com/87710179/russias-fsb-security-service-set-to-have-its-own-pre-trial-detention-centers-as-repression-grows) (FSB), the successor to the Soviet-era KGB, broad powers to order telecom providers to cut people off from internet and mobile services without court oversight.
Telecommunications operators are obliged to comply with such requests and are shielded from legal responsibility for carrying them out, Russian independent media outlet Astra reported.
Putin signed the law on Friday, after it passed its final readings in Russia’s parliament last week.
Lawmakers introduced the bill late last year, arguing it would help protect Russians and state institutions from “security threats.”
The law amends Russia’s communications legislation and effectively allows authorities to block a person’s connectivity anywhere under Moscow’s control, including [occupied parts of Ukraine](https://tvpworld.com/91398402/witold-rodkiewicz-russia-pressuring-ukrainians-to-become-russian).
# Tightening state control
Critics say the move significantly expands [state control ](https://tvpworld.com/91649422/russia-kremlin-supporters-up-in-arms-over-throttling-of-telegram)over digital communications and further strengthens the Kremlin’s ability to suppress dissent and control information flows amid wartime censorship and domestic crackdowns.
The law fits into a wider pattern of steadily increasing digital repression in the country. Russia led the world in internet shutdowns in 2025, with more than 37,000 hours of disruptions affecting an estimated 146 million people, according to figures from Top10VPN, an independent organization that tracks global [internet shutdowns](https://tvpworld.com/91117976/iran-plans-permanent-internet-shutdown-as-authorities-tighten-digital-control).
Russian authorities also recently attempted to fully block the Meta-owned WhatsApp messaging app, the social media company said on Feb. 12.
I wish he would stop giving Trump ideas.
