Russia\u2019s promised ban on Instagram has kicked into effect today, with the social media platform inaccessible for the vast majority of the country\u2019s population, according to internet monitoring service GlobalCheck<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The country announced plans to ban Instagram last week<\/a>, in response to parent company Meta\u2019s decision to allow Facebook and Instagram users<\/a> in some countries to call for violence against Russian soldiers following the country\u2019s invasion of Ukraine. Russia has been steadily restricting access to online platforms in an effort to control the flow of information about the war and has already banned Facebook and Twitter.<\/p>\n

Last Friday, Instagram chief Adam Mosseri said in a tweet that<\/a> \u201cThis decision will cut 80 million in Russia off from one another, and from the rest of the world as ~80% of people in Russia follow an Instagram account outside their country. This is wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Monday, Instagram will be blocked in Russia. This decision will cut 80 million in Russia off from one another, and from the rest of the world as ~80% of people in Russia follow an Instagram account outside their country. This is wrong.<\/p>\n

\u2014 Adam Mosseri (@mosseri) March 11, 2022<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

Over the weekend, Russian influencers on Instagram posted farewell messages to their followers, encouraging them to follow them on other platforms, or download VPN software to bypass the state\u2019s ban. <\/p>\n

The Washington Post<\/em> reports<\/a> that one Russian fashion influencer, Karina Nigay, bemoaned the ban in a live video. \u201cThis is my work,\u201d said Nigay. \u201cImagine you were just fired completely from work and you aren\u2019t receiving any income at all, but at the same time you have expenses for your family, for your team if you have subordinates, and then all of a sudden you have nothing to pay your team.\u201d <\/p>\n

Nigay later suggested the ban might actually turn out to be good for Russian fashion brands. She also responded to commenters on her video who were unfavorably comparing her complaints to the plight of Ukrainians by saying, \u201cListen, to those who are writing all sorts of filth, all these propaganda stories, I absolutely don\u2019t give a shit.\u201d <\/p>\n

Instagram has also provided a platform for Russians to speak out against the war, including wealthy oligarchs and their families. Sofia Abramovich, daughter of billionaire Roman Abramovich, shared an anti-Putin post on Instagram<\/a> before deleting it, while wealthy Russian banker Oleg Tinkov posted<\/a> that the war was \u201cunthinkable and unacceptable.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
