Site administrators to publish fan art “Fanfikus” commented The president of the Safe Internet League, Ekaterina Mizulina, explained in an interview with Reedus that half of Russian-language sources containing fan fiction should be blocked because their content does not comply with current legislation. The service owners emphasize that they will not remove the content of their authors.
“We will not remove or restrict content and our authors, nor will we traditionally differentiate between good and bad. We are working as hard as we can, and if we are blocked, we will exist outside the Russian Federation. The interlocutors of the organization, if they really push it down, let’s go to the bottom like captains with their ships, ”said the official.
The creators of the site also stated that if the project is banned for non-commercial reasons, it will not suffer financial loss and will not replace hired employees. At the same time, they acknowledged that blocking the source could do real harm to Fanficus.
Formerly Roskomnadzor requested American samizdat platform Archive of Our Own’s removal of Russian fanfiction in which content containing child pornography was noticed.
