Decision trail

Decision date 14/06/2024 · Reference ↗

A number of extensions for the Firefox browser, which allow you to bypass Internet blocks established in the Russian Federation, have become unavailable in the official Mozilla catalog for users from Russia. According to the representative of the organization, the decision followed "persistent requests" from Roskomnadzor. At the same time, the developers said that they only temporarily limited access and were thinking about how to proceed further. Firefox developers called temporary blocking of a number of VPNs in Russia. 14/06/2024: Mozilla has reinstated some Firefox add-ons that were banned in Russia by the Kremlin earlier this week.
