Internet Archive unblocked in Russia

Roskomnadzor has unblocked the website of the Internet Archive on the territory of the Russian Federation. This was reported on April 16 by users on social networks.

On Saturday evening, the Archive.org website opened via a direct link when entering from Russia. According to information on the site antizapret.info , the pages of the Internet Archive have been excluded from the register of banned sites in the Russian Federation.

However, some users report that the site is still unavailable. This may be due to gradual DNS updates.

• Russian providers began blocking the Internet Archive on September 1, 2015. It was reported that links to videos related to Syrian Islamists were included in the registry of banned files.
• Archive.org is a non-commercial media repository. The site also hosts the Wayback Machine service, which allows you to see how this or that page looked in the past.
