Sadly, it is not an opinion, but a fact.

As Internet access in Russia and other countries worldwide becomes more
affordable, Fidonet will die the same slow, agonizing death it's been
experiencing in Z1 for several years now. Sadly, the powers that be will
probably never realize that their own demagoguery only served to accelerate the
freefall of Fidonet in Z1.

I hope Russia doesn't have to experience such a spectacle. It was sad enough to
have to see it happen here!
