What counts as "banned"? For example, Youtube is not officially banned, but all internet providers are forced to block/restrict it.

@AlekseyVoropaev well, a service needs to be inaccessible without VPN - just like Facebook or Instagram right now. YouTube in Russia…ok, the thing is: they had pretty much banned it on personal computers, as far as I know, but I’m quite positive that it still works well on mobile phones, even though it didn’t for a while. I honestly think that I probably should “resolve to percent” it eventually, and if by the year’s end it will still be accessible, but so slow that it will be impossible to work with (including on cellphones), the resolution will be, like, “Resolved to 90%”, I guess…Or to 95%

The AI has done a really great job with this question’s picture, in my opinion…
