Hello Max,
would you like the world to do exactly your (i.e. Russian citizens) job and cut your small dictator off? Why? It is your country, not our, so do it yourself
We can't do that by ourselfs only ) And, yes, we don't have elections here.
There some other countries, like Ukraine for example, who copy bad practice of Internet censorship too. That's why Internet companies and ISPs should think about those problem together.
I hate to say it, but ISPs are bound by the laws of the country they're operating in. If your government doesn't allow free access there is nothing anyone outside of your country can do. Change has to come from within. You are hurt by your governments decision to block access to millions of IPs? Let them know. Let your customers know who is responsible. That is not something we can do for you. Also the RIPE NCC already has an outreach program to meet with and inform governments, but a government would have to be willing to meet and be informed.
