Signal Private Messenger Blocked in Russia by Roskomnadzor: Report

Russia's state communications watchdog, Roskomnadzor, has blocked the encrypted messaging app Signal due to violations of anti-terrorism laws. The app is restricted to ensure compliance with Russian legislation against the misuse of messaging platforms for terrorist purposes. Prior to the block, users reported glitches, and over 1,500 complaints were logged, primarily from major cities. Users can still access Signal via VPNs or its censorship bypass mode. New users are unable to register without a VPN, encountering a "Server Error" when trying to enter their mobile numbers. This represents the first significant effort by Russian authorities to block Signal, following a similar incident with Telegram in 2018.
