All my Russian homies VPN via Ukraine instead. Glory to Europe.

Until 2 years ago rt.com had telegram links on every article.

Edit: they still do... website is made for the foreigners.

I also found the order buttons are broken for the VMs on your website, but the FTP storage links work so I figured if I created an account I'd probably be able to order something.

Could you please provide us with link to page where you are facing problem with order button? Also describe what plan you are attempt to buy?

None of the buttons on this page work: https://www.robovps.biz/en/vps/

Telegram is still very popular in Russia. Even high-ranking officials use it.

You seem to be redirecting to your billmgr based on Yandex analytics constructed action. My browser (firefox) in its default configuration (without extensions) blocks those, even in private tabs.

Here's what happens after user clicks a link (they get redirected to #):

Since the actual redirection happens on onclick action which depends on yandex tag.js constructed object:

And those are blocked (by firefox at least):

The site works as intended when I turn off "Enhanced tracking protection" in firefox site settings (this allows yandex and google analytics to load their scripts).

Consider having a fallback for when analytics are blocked (i imagine most popular browser extensions like uBlock will prevent your site from working in its current state).

For the same reason that France arrested the owner of Telegram. But please don't discuss blocking, unblocking, and the fight for internet freedom. That's off-topic.

He had, but he is too stupid and arrogant to admit he made a mistake. Instead, he invented a wild story about DDoS attacks and government blocking.
Here is the code where he commented out the working link tag and replaced it with “#”. The external Yandex.ru JavaScript is blocked by many browsers because of Yandex’s excessive tracking. On other subpages, the old code is still active, and the links still work.

It’s a shame you guys helped him. Without that, he might have ended up like @Calin, who also naively insisted his website worked fine. After several months, I pointed out that his upstream gaming DDoS protection was blocking all Apple devices.

Good service, but unfortunately the payment options are limited. Apart from cryptocurrency payments, other international payment methods are not supported, and the handling fee is 5%. From what I know, other Russian merchants charge around 3.5% for handling fees.

We are pleased to announce that the commission for cryptocurrency payments has been 3% since yesterday.

Everything disabled by upstream provider. Therefore you cannot connect to youtube or telegram from our servers.

TSPU works almost in real-time and, unfortunately, is not a public service, so no one knows what is blocked and what is not. In addition, it depends on the location and the upstream provider. I have heard of cases where public repositories were accidentally blocked. However, hosts can usually contact the CMU SSP center, and IP addresses can be unblocked within 24 hours (unless you request unblocking, such as for Telegram or Facebook).
