1. Some Russian / ex-USSR vk user snitched on another Russian / ex-USSR vk user to get him v& for a personal disagreement.
2. A janny looked at the page and Listed the ooffending content.
3. RKN web crawlers, in the course of looking for Listed content on the online, found a copy on the Farms and sent a notice.

(livejournal was never mainstream here, the Russian side of it was/is a liberal faggot glory hole.)

The jannies aren't grannies, they're young politically unaffiliated women with useless humanities degrees who only care about 3 things: feeding the baby, finding a new husband, and buying a replacement smartphone because this one's screen is cracked. They get paid about $300/month.

When I worked for RKN (2017), they only had an in-house anti-j*urno department, social networks did their own jannying. The three most popular categories of offenses were
  • naughty words
  • mentions of banned organizations without a notice about the ban
  • ethnic slurs
(during elections, election silence infractions predictably spiked)
of which general-purpose naughty words was the largest by far, at like 98%. The SMO must be at #3 now, banned organizations booming because there are more of them, and naughty words on the decline but still at #1 as lib rags folded or closed their comment sections.

But these are j*urno-specific. There's more:
  • gambling
  • porn (not at all enforced)
  • sudoku and self-harm
  • darwin award contenders
  • faggotry (weakly enforced)
  • drugs and roids
  • illegal sales of normal (potentially fake) medicine
  • illegal sales of alcohol
  • medical scams
  • explosives
  • exam materials
  • defamation, after a court decision
No one is butthurt by this. When a soyboy goes to a judge (a 45-year-old married woman with two children) and says "Dynastia told me to kill myself faggot", she's not offended on his behalf, she despises him -- but only when he's in line of sight, because she has a jacuzzi and a wine cellar in the basement.

Russian jannies are not peddit jannies, they aren't doing it for free. Hohoholocaust isn't banned because it's blasphemy and sacrilege, it's banned because there's a swastika in it, and swastikas are naughty. Decision-makers are far, far removed from the original offendees, who are probably already dead from cirrhosis or methylene poisoning.

As for alleged lolicon image itself, it probably was just reported together or sometime after the Santa Hitler in order to cause some ruckus by having the site blocked.

When I checked the registry sometime last year, there were 3 KF "pages" on it: hohoholocaust, a pedo image, and an image calling for ethnic cleansing. I followed up on the court cases and the original pages involved were all Russian. At the time at least, no one was deliberately targeting the Farms.

The Russian internet ministry banning a website because of a joke picture is fucking stupid.

Not as stupid as that one time they banned 4chan's home page and nothing else.
One could give them the benefit of doubt and assume they merely wanted to dissuade 90% of Russian visitors from going there but you should know better than that by now.

When it comes to national governments of any type, giving them any kind of benefit is probably ill-advised. Even America is full of people who think you should be arrested over a stupid joke you posted on the internet twenty years ago.

At this point I don't even know if it's general incompetence or genuine sabotage. The government boomers don't want the normalfags to see shit they don't want them to see, so the agency "complies" by putting in the bare minimum amount of work and setting up the simplest of blocks, to the point where even the most basic bitch VPN is enough to completely bypass the block.
Chinese firewall this isn't.

As a result, the government boomers are satisfied, general populace doesn't give much a fuck, and anyone that does give a fuck (as well as any shitposter worth their salt) now knows how to use VPN and is barely inconvenienced by this shit.

And it ultimately attracts attention to the very material they want censored.

I sometimes think these agencies are manned by people who like the concept of malicious compliance.

They know what they're being paid to do is bullshit, but they like being paid for a near zero-effort job, so they deliberately do their job in a half-assed incompetent way and secretly agree with what they're censoring.

I don't know how to tell you this, but... kiwifarms.pl is not blocked. You can browse it without VPN in Russia.

You need VPN to turn the tor ON in the first place.
