Roskomnadzor blocked the international dictionary of the world’s sign languages verification service Blocking the section when entering the address spreadthesign.com indicates that access to the resource is restricted.
At the same time, when entering site data, data from Roskomnadzor on the start date of blocking and the reasons for this step are not provided. However, the ministry’s records confirm that there were restrictions on Russians visiting the source.
The dictionary was created in 2006, initially presenting six sign languages from around the world. It now contains more than 400 thousand gestures in 44 different languages, including Russian.
The project has not only a website but also an application. Spread The Sign has more than 610,000 sign videos in its database to provide a variety of sign languages to users worldwide.
The aim of the project is to make all sign languages in the world accessible to users from every country with access to the network. Spread The Sign is managed by the European Sign Language Centre, a non-profit association based in Örebro, Sweden.
Formerly in the State Duma I started talking About possible blocking of Wikipedia under the new law.
