Excuse the idiotic color scheme.
The pie chart shows Tor, the internet anonymity network and its 2.5GBps capacity split over countries.
90% of usage is currently in Russia.
Isolation of a developed wide area network from the Internet is almost impossible. Even if fully physical separation occurs, there will always be someone that can establish an interlink, Russia has tens of thousands of KM of borders, one cable or one wireless link is enough to bring routable Internet packets back on Russian soil.
It is impossible for Russia to turn to North Korea in the context of flow of outside information to the country.

Results of the first round of the presidential elections:
the same as five years ago. The next president will be either right-wing or fascist.

Strange that Macron will be re-elected after years of gilets jaunes protests. Hollande was not re-elected but he will be. Yet better him than Sarkozy.
In some countries in Europe, media are hostile to the "true" left. The most they can afford is some kind of washed up socialist -democrat approach. I haven't followed up with France lately but my impression is that Macron has been protected by mainstream media way much more than Hollande (who was rather exposed).

Macron made a real effort in the Russia/Ukraine situation, and he has the personality and authority to represent his own country, as well as the EU imo. If I look at the world, I wish we had more leaders like him.

What has this to do with the music of Iron Maiden.
Nothing, that's why it's in a politics thread in a general discussion forum. Maiden stuff happens in Maiden Chat.

OK, but confusing.
How is it confusing that people express sympathy for the people of Ukraine?

Literally the first person being confused about the General Section in my 15 years on the forum.

Because I clicked on the IM fans forum and it was there. Couldn't see the connection tween Maiden and Ukraine war.
