Report blocking activity

If you know about new or planned restrictions on the Russian internet, share it with us. These signals help us react faster and prepare workarounds before the restrictions reach users.

What is useful
for us to know

Any of these topics is of interest. Even partial information adds up to the full picture — you do not need to know everything at once.

New blocks

Websites, apps, and protocols that were recently blocked or are about to be blocked.

Technical mechanisms

DPI filtering, DNS spoofing, blocking by IP and SNI, deliberate traffic throttling.

Timelines and plans

When and in what order new restrictions are planned to roll out, stages and pilot launches.

Restriction lists

Lists of domains, IP addresses, and ASNs that are already filtered or slated for filtering.

Regions and carriers

Differences between networks: where a restriction is already live, where it is being tested, where it is absent.

Internal documents

Directives, instructions, and technical specifications related to deploying restrictions.

What is
especially valuable

The more specific the information, the faster we can prepare the infrastructure. An ideal report answers at least some of these questions.

  • Whatwhich services, protocols, or address ranges are affected
  • Whowhich authority, agency, or carrier is deploying the restriction
  • Whendates, stages, and rollout timelines
  • Howthe technical mechanism: equipment, filtering method, configuration
  • Wherewhich networks, carriers, and regions are affected
  • Evidencedocuments, screenshots, traffic captures, links to sources

How to share
the information

Support chat

Write to the support chat in the account dashboard. Any account works — even a brand-new, empty one. No need to introduce yourself.

Email

If email is easier, write to tips@npv.tg. A throwaway mailbox is fine — no signature or reply address required.

Our commitments

  • We never reveal the source. We do not publish or pass on to anyone any details that could identify who the information came from.
  • Data is used only to keep the service running. The information we receive goes into preparing our infrastructure for restrictions — and nothing else.
Important: we are not asking anyone to break the law, work duties, or non-disclosure agreements. Share only what you consider right to share.
