Oh yeah, Russian playbok completely, lol. In Russia they begun their censorship with a premise of fighting piracy.

In fact they pioneered the toolset to prohibit any webpage they don't like.

It took only a couple of years before political opposition websites became illegal

And now look at them - Actual Whitelist internet. (If you don't know what whitelist is - they only allow you to visit certain webpages, and block all other traffic, and this is not the exaggeration, it happens right now).
