All --
We do and will continue to defend the freedom knowledge and autonomy of our sites in every corner of the world.
Due to rapidly changing circumstances in some areas, occasionally we have to put holds on some activities. Currently we have a hold on fundraising in Russia while we figure out the changing legal landscape. This is fairly standard process that we go through many times throughout the year with multiple regions. We are working as fast as we can towards solving this or creating an acceptable work-around. We would appreciate your help and support through this process.
Thank you, Lila

Geoff, I do not share the satisfaction towards your above statement.
The more words, the less clarity. The less respect for others. The more you deny something the more it is likely.
We, me have not received answers to few simple questions. Instead, we received strenuous ensure that this is not a political issue, that matters are under consideration, that this will not have any impact, and so on and so on. That is why I personally believe that this is a political issue. Or ... but never mind, I do not want to offend anyone.
And not as the opposite, but great respect and thanks for Rubin's efforts to disclose this mysterious issue.
Regards, Janusz "Ency" Dorożyński
