Russia banning Rumble is a big cognitive-dissonance event for certain "Dissident Influencers" who've become actual Russian stooges lately. They love to peacock as huge Free Speech defenders, while oddly ignoring or even justifying the extreme Censorship Crackdown imposed by Putin
Roskomnadzor just complains to random ISPs about random websites (including to people I've known), and sends Russian language letters making demands to people who don't speak Russian that operate english language websites. I feel like the notices they send are automated. (not saying it is in rumble's case) It's quite bizarre.
To my knowledge, YouTube isn't blocked in Russia and I believe all the anti-Russia content is still on there.
