Putin Us On? After Being Booted From US Net Domains, the Neo-Nazi Daily Stormer Tried Russia. But Even That Didn't Work

How come a perfectly transparent violence-promoting Neo-Nazi hate site can't find a home on the famously multicultural interweb?

Could there really be cross-civilizational human standards and cultural norms?  Or is it just too politically hot right now. Even for cynics. JL

Timothy Lee reports in ars technica:

The Russians have nixed the Daily Stormer's new online home, citing the country's laws against hate speech. According to Radio Free Europe, the Russian company responsible for registering the Daily Stormer's Russian domain received a letter from Russian authorities asking it "to look into the possibility of register suspension due to extremist content of this domain. So we decided to suspend [the] domain Dailystormer.ru."
When the Daily Stormer lost control of its .com domain in the face of a social media protest, the infamous hate site sought virtual refuge in Russia. For a few hours on Wednesday, the site re-appeared at the domain "dailystormer.ru" before the site lost DDoS protection from CloudFlare and disappeared from the Web once again.
Now the Russians have nixed the Daily Stormer's new online home, citing the country's laws against hate speech. According to Radio Free Europe, the Russian company responsible for registering the Daily Stormer's Russian domain received a letter from Russian authorities asking it "to look into the possibility of register suspension due to extremist content of this domain. So we decided to suspend [the] domain Dailystormer.ru.""Russian law has established a very strict regime for combatting any kind of extremism in the Internet," said Aleksandr Zharov, head of the Roskomnadzor, the Russian government agency responsible for media and Internet regulation.
Zharov told Radio Free Europe that the Daily Stormer "propagates neo-Nazi ideology and stirs up racial, national, and other forms of social discord," in likely violation of Russian hate speech laws.The current controversy began when Daily Stormer editor Andrew Anglin wrote a vulgar post attacking Heather Heyer, who was killed in this weekend's Charlottesville car attack. Social media activists convinced GoDaddy to blacklist the site, and when the site transferred its domain to Google's domain service, Google blacklisted the site as well. Since then, the site hasn't been able to find another .com registrar willing to work with it.
But Anglin isn't giving up. "We're going to be up on the Darkweb soon," he wrote in a Thursday morning post on the right-wing Twitter competitor Gab.
