This sucks, I've met so many very cool and interesting Russian people. The internet is meant to connect people not box them in an echo chamber.
yeah, you met two cool russian people. Millions of older family members are being bombarded with propaganda from the rest of the russians that are less cool.
And disconnecting these people from the internet will help them how.. exactly? Oh right you don't care about them because they have different beliefs.
Who are the "they" here?
EDIT : What are "their" beliefs?
That's the Russian government. The Russian government will not cease cyber attacks. This is only to stop citizens being able to find information.
The amount Russians working in troll farms is nothing compared with the amount of good hearted decent Russian people and I'm saying this as a massive Ukraine war simp.
