Hi,
this topic may get highly political, please regard my comment just as an
example. No judgement if US is better than Russia or EU is better than
North Korea.
For certain countries it was like "proverbial" but now it is happening
elsewhere...

.org is at risk too: I know of at least an information site which I
followed and was essentially removed and they had to migrate a different
suffix
Also, censorship could happen. Something trivial like russian post hast
not been accessible from Italy since a long time, while for others it
worked. I am not using VPN or other tricks, I suspect some kind of Italy
or EU wide ban. For a long time it just never connected, now it changed.
I suppose direct routing blocking, changing DNS did not help.
Another nasty thing that could happen which affects e.g. HTTPS is
certificates. Due to sanctions, russians could not renew their
certificates which come mostly from US companies, so after a while all
browers would give you security warnings.
We don't know how much US-EU-UK relationships will worsen and change.
But Brexit happened, Trump came and EU is becoming quite totalitarian.
So who knows.
Things could be directed to a country or a single company like the .org
site I witnessed.
