From what I saw in recent discussions on ycombinator there is a bit of misunderstanding about informational blackout in Russia. This is newsfeed from RIA for past few day, google translated. It's closely correlates with TV news.

It's expected that on 2/4 there will be passed law about spreading disinformation about special military operation, punishable by 15years and maybe also martial law to further tighten access to information and suppress dissent

It looks kinda funny how from their representation of the events Russia does absolutely nothing while the rest of the world suddenly started to harass it. It looks exactly like USSR 2.0.

Also "Benefits for IT-companies will slow down an outflow of personnel from Russia, an expert said". Mhm.

people are afraid there that like in ussr there will be russian "visa" in order to go abroad. this will essentially prevent IT personal leaving.

lol. but actually it's sad. we have office over there and one of the guys got just stamped his and his wifes passports in some other country and got them mailed back. he got his passport first week ago (magic on dhl) and yesterday he had to literally escape abroad without wife because chances that there will be mobilization are too high...

a lot of good people gonna get stuck there in case "Exit visa" will be a thing
