Just for fun, I did one more.

I used Yandex, which is a Russian search engine.

https://yandex.com/search/?text=sovereign+internet+russian+times&lr=21218&p=0

The RT isn't in the first five pages reporting on the sovereign internet law.

You'd think a world leader in free speech, on a Russian search engine, inside the Russian sovereign internet, could turn up a few articles reporting on their own internet laws.

The RT is so woke they don't report the bad news.


Why does RT need to publish some random idea that you've picked out? That's a strawman.

I just did a search for "sovereign internet law australia" Does this prove any more than your search? I don't think so.

I'm not worried about the media in Russia, look what my government thinks about internet freedom.

It's an obvious and verifiable example of how Russia skews exposure to information, news, and data that might provide negative information about the government.

If you can't see how that very obvious example could be extrapolated to their traditional news media (verified by my own information I provided in this thread), an organization that is literally owned by the government, then you my man are blind.

There is no strawman, I literally searched the RT for information they should have reported on if they are the bastion of free speech and a woke world view as you and others have claimed. It doesn't exist.

If you do a search on net neutrality in the US you get 29M results via google. The dichotomy is obvious. Russia controls their media right down to the RT and their search results.

However, the comparison you tried to make is obvious nonsense. The Russian government is censoring Twitter, Facebook, Google, you name it. Go down to pharmacy and get some laxatives, your head is firmly stuck in your ass if you think your comparison makes any sense.

Not that I care, Twitter is garbage and the people that think it some sort of public service are very confused. Life in the internet age... Some people aren't cut out for it.

Twitter has terms of service because it has free speech rights. The government limits Twitter access because of censorship.

You’ve completely lost the plot dude

Wow, it's almost as if somebody can take up different positions on different things according to their personal sense of morality!

Amazing, isn't it?

But oh no, I said some things that are considered conservative positions, so now I am only allowed to think entirely along traditional republican lines!

At any rate, the censorship on twitter is not just an issue in regards to private property. It is an issue of a handful of elites attempting to establish total control over the flow of information. By extension, controlling what people think. The fact that anybody here is OK with that is amazing

Which elites are trying to establish control over the flow of information on Twitter? Elon?

A handful of elites have literally established control over the flow of information in Russia when the government established the single register. They did so in 2012. The RT is part of that system, but also their entire internet is controlled by it. They have an entire department dedicated to it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roskomnadzor

https://www.hrw.org/news/2020/06/18/russia-growing-internet-isolation-control-censorship


You are here bitching about Twitter controlling the property it owns, while proposing elites are controlling it, meanwhile in Russia the government literally is controlling Twitter, Google, Facebook, and everything else via a centrally controlled internet. Twitter is optional, it sucks anyways, but at least the government isn't censoring it in the US. Twitter is free to operate as they see fit. Really, the Twitter topic is a red herring by you and the others attempting to espouse the legitimacy of RT. Sadly, I don't think it is even on purpose. I just think you guys are too ignorant to see how the internet works, to see how Russia censors on a massive scale.

https://www.top10vpn.com/research/websites-blocked-in-russia/

Let's have a look.

Quote:
2,384 websites have been blocked in Russia since Feb 24 due to content relating to the invasion of Ukraine.

Notable bans: Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Google News, BBC News, NPR, Die Welt, AOL, Ukrayinska Pravda, Meduza.io, Interfax-Ukraine, Radio Liberty/Radio Free Europe sites, Voice of America, The Telegraph, Bellingcat, Amnesty International and Chess.com.

Ukrainian domains (902) were the most frequently blocked, followed by Russia (276) and the U.S. (57, excl. mirror domains).

News sites: 1,773 domains now blocked:

503 Ukraine news sites, including 150 local news outlets and 101 national news sites.

154 Russian news services, including 38 independent news sites.

15 public broadcasters from around the world.

141 foreign news sites based in 23 countries outside of Russia and Ukraine.

Digital resistance: Russia has blocked 472 domains that contribute to Ukraine’s digital war effort, including:

249 hijacked domains displaying counter-propaganda messages.

107 counter-propaganda sites often showing graphic images of civilian and military casualties.

47 sites showing support for Ukraine, many of which are limited to simple banners or badges.

26 civil society sites, including Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and 13 Ukrainian charities and other non-profits.

14 government domains, including Ukraine’s Office of the President website, the official website of Ukraine and the nation’s Health Ministry site.


Then there is you, worried about Twitter kicking Donald Trump off for breaking the rules.

Developing a consistent ideology is antithetical to the modern right.

Well, apart from (((that))) ideology, of course. Which is still unpopular. Right now, the more vague the better, until they are in a position to do their thing where they arrest all the Democrats and leftists and torture them as punishment for the great crime of thinking people should have rights.
