Great Russian Firewall?

Overnight another exercise was held in Russia to ensure the sustainable and holistic functioning of the Internet, RBC has found out. The exercise "turned off the international internet", a source said.

According to the law on Runet sustainability adopted in autumn 2019, exercises must be conducted at least once a year, a Roskomnadzor spokesman recalled, describing the exercise as successful. He left unanswered the question of what objectives the organizers of the exercise were pursuing by shutting down the international segment of the Internet.
