I wonder do they have a backup site?
What will be the supposed reason be for taking them down?
"SouthFront (sometimes written South Front) is a multilingual website registered in Russia and based in Crimea.[1] It has been accused by multiple sources of being an outlet for disinformation and propaganda under the control of the Russian government. For this reason, it has been sanctioned by the US Treasury and banned by social media platforms."
First I have heard of them.
Yes, I know it is wikipedia, but that is the "official" line. Does anyone know the truth?
What is their IP address?
They will not give one. If finally forced, they will blame it on Trump or Russia.
Wow!
Took ‘em down at the worldwide naming service.
That truly is unprecedented.

What is to stop them from doing the same thing with southfront.press? This Deep State is pointless if it is so easily defeated.
Sorry, clicked on a link about southfront in a blog post that was talking about stormfront.
Mis-dis-information, propaganda, Putti-poot-poor making our woke generals look like the imbeciles they are.
Censorship is a red flag. It indicates that someone is telling the truth that threatens those in power. If you tell a lie, whether subtle or blatant, our government is not concerned, they are not threatened and they do not censor. On the other hand, when you tell a threatening truth the government’s defense is censorship because their position is indefensible.
When there is free speech, differing and adverse opinions can be countered by more free speech. Those in our government don’t have a leg to stand on when it comes to their ideas and policies. They lack the ability to defend many of their positions, and quite often when they do defend they ask you to deny your logic and your senses. Our government can only succeed in its Marxist goals when a majority of people are cognitively dysfunctional and/or indoctrinated by our education system. Considering 50% of Americans have below average intelligence and the vast majority of Americans have been indoctrinated by government schools it is incumbent upon a minority of clear thinking, freedom loving Americans to correct the situation.
That ain’t gonna be pretty.
“Took ‘em down at the worldwide naming service. That truly is unprecedented.”
Indeed. And VERY scary. That’s the ultimate censorship when your domain just ceases to exist without warning. Who do you appeal to? Is there an appeal / adjudication process?
>What is their IP address?
That’s the relevant question. I keep the current IP for Freerepublic on hand in case of ‘errors.’ Would it have been too hard to share this, guys?
It will become commonplace.
Hope FR is making plans.
“they were a Pro-Russian website”
I object to their domain being blocked. They should have been hit with an S-300.
We are supposed to hate Russia because they censor political opponents....
Lol.
This could be a tell:
I’d never heard of them. Now I’m on the hunt.
IP is purported to have been 194.58.88.47, but all record of southfront.org is curiously nonexistent now.
Any time the US government tells me I shouldn’t read something, it goes on my Mandatory-Reading list.
US government censorship
Unfortunately we have a bunch of war mongering idiots within and around our government who like to control whatever they can get their hands on, as well as have other people fight their wars for them. I just hope that in the long run they lose, as promoting peace is the furthest from their minds.
