The anti-extremism law is too general and can be applied to just about anything. What next, will a judge ban the internet? It could make society and governance a lot more inefficient and will make a lot of people needlessly upset. Banning all of YouTube is extreme in itself.

Far East? Oh, the place that has ben quasi-covertly being taken over by North Koreans and Chinese? What a very suprising and completely unexpected ruling. But do not worry, Russian government is already selling out those parts of Russia so it will be a part of PRC soon so that will clear some things up as far as "extremism" goes... Chairman Mao and Preved Medved are always on the vigilant watch of protecting feeble minds of their peasants and workers.

Freedom of conscience is born with humans. It is within all of us. By banning youtube, that court has effectively tried to delete a human right, namely the right of opinion. This verdict is an insult towards humanity itself. We as humans have the obligation to fight against such stupid court decision. Such facistic dictation must not be allowed! It is time to protest and gather with like minded people to lift this ban. Can you forbid a human not to think ?

This matter concerns all of humanity. It is an attempt to censor freedom of conscience. You cannot kill the right to think or to form thoughts within your intellect but dictators try anyway. Mr. Putin I exhort you to take this matter into concideration since it can be seen as an attack against the human right of concience. Russia is a democracy and such censorship do not belong in a democracy.
