ProtonMail blocked in Russia
ProtonMail blocked, which may be a shot back at those protesting Russia's plan to route the entire Internet through a node under state control, which some call an "Internet kill switch."

Update on the attempted blocking of ProtonMail email servers in Russia
ProtonMail Blog March 12 The block does not prevent Russian citizens from using or accessing ProtonMail, it just makes it difficult for Russian mail servers (like mail.ru) to communicate with ProtonMail. As of now, the blocks are still in place, but we have implemented some technical measures to largely reduce the impact of the blocks, so services in Russia are operational at this time. If the situation changes, we will take additional measures as necessary to ensure the proper functioning of ProtonMail in Russia. |
