_Siberian Light_ offers this gem:

An enterprising Russian blogger has developed a piece of code that can
be inserted on websites to bar any visitors with an Estonian IP
address.

Presumably, he's done this because of his outrage at recent events in
Estonia.

Anyway, the plan was going swimmingly until someone pointed out that
the primary 'victims' of this piece of code would be Russians living
within Estonia...

You really like that 'siberian twilight' place don't you comrade peetey.. and I can understand why.

When I visited it a year or two ago.. it started out nice enough.. complaints about (mud) road conditions.. incompetent local officials..

But then suddenly veered into the 'hate the Baltics' crap.. and 'matooshka uber alles' crap too.

Very bifurcated - just like you.

I wonder how many decades it will take the Estonian "computer experts"
and their colleagues from USA to figure out that the same posted
Russian code can be used by Estonians to filter out packets with
Russian IP addresses, simply by changing several characters...

Well, I guess, instead of adding the simple posted Russian code or
writing their own (which takes a typical Russian 5 minutes), the
Estonian "experts" chose the "stone age" approach of diconnection from
the net. I wonder how they did it... Probably by cutting cables with
scissors... Or maybe pulling the cables out of the sockets?

Retard russian chavinist Karla,
It's like this...

*Normal* western countries do not dictatorially sever communication lines to even *abnormal* russian ones. Only barbarians do that.

(But I did like the russkie who stopped exile russkies from reporting back to their FSB masters)

Judging by the above, they never left stone age.

Agree. The russkies have reverted to throwing their feces at people again.
Even from the kreml windows.

Urrraaah!
