YouTube in Russia is “de facto blocked” – media (INFOGRAPHICS)

    In Russia, the traffic of the popular video hosting YouTube has greatly decreased and is now only 20% of the indicators that were before the Russian authorities began to “slow it down.”

    .

    Russian media reported this today, December 23, with reference to Mikhail Klimarev, an IT expert of the public anti-censorship organization Internet Defense Community.

    Klimarev analyzed traffic data through the Google monitoring service. Based on them, he compiled a YouTube slowdown graph, showing that access to the video hosting site has been significantly limited in recent days.

    Now Google’s monitoring service shows 8.5 points of traffic from Russia. Before the “slowdown” it was 40 points. That is, we are no longer talking about some kind of trolling (reducing speed – ed.), but a real blocking.

    Russian authorities began limiting the speed of access to YouTube this summer, initially explaining the reasons for this phenomenon as allegedly “technical problems in the operation of equipment owned by Google,” which is the owner of YouTube.

    Subsequently, Russia nevertheless admitted that the slowdown in access to the service was intentional.

    The slowdown occurred in several waves, the last of which began in early December and noticeably intensified from December 15th.
