Is Russia implementing something along the lines of "The Great Firewall of China"?

From what I have heard it has its own search engine, Yandex and that offers similar products to Google but that is far as my knowledge goes when it comes to the Russian internet.

Should still work over Tor Browser, as should many open-source front-ends such as https://nitter.net.

Not having Twitter is probably a good thing for everyone.
