I though RT was part of Russia&amp;#x27;s foreign propaganda effort, so I wouldn&amp;#x27;t expect it to have much effect on domestic news consumption.  IIRC, actually Russians get their news from domestic outlets like &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Russia-1&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Russia-1&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Channel_One_Russia&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&amp;#x2F;wiki&amp;#x2F;Channel_One_Russia&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;p&gt;This is good news, but mainly because it interferes with Russia&amp;#x27;s foreign propaganda operations around this attack.</text><parent_chain><item><author>hughrr</author><text>This is excellent. If you look elsewhere on the Internet you will find that most of the Russian tank crews and troops were told that they were doing an exercise and kept completely isolated &amp;quot;on mission&amp;quot; for a couple of months. Then they get orders to proceed into Ukraine, probably spun without any collateral information or lies. At this point under DDoS their usual news sources are GONE. That means no propaganda available from the Russian government. The only sources available to them, if they get access to them, are saying that they&amp;#x27;re the bad guys and that is soul crushingly demotivating when you don&amp;#x27;t know why you are where you are.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Anonymous takes down websites of Defense Ministry, RT and Kremlin</title><url>https://thebarentsobserver.com/en/security/2022/02/anonymous-takes-down-websites-defense-ministry-rt-and-kremlin</url></story>
