As a result of the war between Ukraine and Russia, many rules of the Internet have been violated

With the escalating conflict in Ukraine, the world is facing a situation that has never been seen before.

Corporate companies such as Meta, Google, and Apple, which have always called themselves neutral tech companies, are now beginning to have a political color as they impose sanctions on their products in response to the Russian invasion.

In the meantime, the Internet is changing for the better in Russia. With Twitter and Facebook blocked, TikTak is not allowing Russian users to post, and police are reportedly blocking people from taking to the streets to find out what people are watching on their phones. ۔

Now there are questions about whether this conflict could change not only the geography of the world but also the nature of the global Internet.
