The Russian telecommunications sector regulator, Roskomnadzor published a message on a Russian social network,Vkontakte, warning that Reddit might be soon banned. The reason for banning is “an article about growing narcotic plants” which was published on Reddit.

Lol. Is growing narcotic plants all they're worried about? Plenty of other more malicious stuff on reddit. When countries threaten to bad websites for stuff like this it only shows how backwards and silly they are. Banning sites is futile as it takes seconds to use a proxy and get around any restrictions.
