Before a possible internet wall between Russia and the rest of the world is erected, it seems to me a priority to actively invest energy in gather together, receiving (internet) addresses, proxies, VPNs, satellite options, short golf etc.
 
I already saw a group in this box that collects this information. I just can't find it right now.
 
However, it is necessary that that information is quickly decentralized, through various media.
 
Does anyone know which group I'm talking about?

A Wikipedia author has been arrested in Belarus. Wikipedia advises all editors in Belarus and Russia to hide their personal data, and to write/complete articles about war only from secret accounts.
