I hope everyone read
yesterday’s news of an attempt to block the VKontakte site across Belarus, replacing it with a fake phishing mirror so that the proclamations from the opposition would not reach the people.
Strangely enough, this morning a light wave of rumors (some of
its splashes: [ 1 ], [
2 ], [
3 ]) passed through blogs that say that this technology of our western brothers was quickly transferred to Russian soil: bloggers noted the impossibility read the blog of the local opposition activist Navalny, famous for fighting corruption, and this impossibility is explained by their false DNS responses, that is, almost entirely according to the Belarusian scenario, but there are two differences.
First, there was no phishing.
Secondly, Belarus was suspected of being a major (and sometimes uncontested) provider
Beltelecom - and in Russia, as far as I myself just checked with the
ping command , its analog Rostelecom (at least, here in the south) does not the bases. We are talking
about some other providers, not so large.
I do not know what to think, gentlemen. It is clear that either the special services or the opposition (and perhaps both of them) operate in the same countries according to the same scenario. But who made this scenario for them, unfolding day by day with such efficiency? Or a genius of creativity decided to become a simulator, a copyist of someone else's drama?

In any case, this is not a mere coincidence. There is no such coincidence.
