Modern warfare:

1. Russia asks Telegram for encrypted, private data

2. Telegram CEO Hive account@durov says “no”

3. Russia bans Telegram usage

4. Hive account@durov gives millions of $ in “Bitcoin grants” to VPN owners to help Russians get around the ban.

Privacy is a cause worth fighting for.
Totally unnecessary for Hive account@durov to hand out grants because @SubstratumNet will be free for absolutely everyone to use to access the new fundamentally decentralized internet. Let these asshat centralized agencies ban all they want. It won't matter. #SubSavesTheInternet.
