Internet freedom has been markedly reduced in Russia: people go to prison if they post in social media, there is a halt to the VPN services, and the preservation of expanded data is hard to sustain. And recent movements by the Russian government show that further developments will still come.

These servers contain global IP Public Address databases and host names.
If Russia creates its own government, it could become the king of the internet, experts say.
