Do you mean rt.com? I just accessed that cesspool and Germany is part of the EU, so .. nope. Not banned.

It is banned by Ziggo in the Netherlands.

When I open it incognito I am redirected to a Ziggo.nl page saying:

Deze website is geblokkeerd

Europese sancties

De Raad van Europa heeft besloten dat de websites van RT (voorheen Russia Today) en Sputnik News niet meer mogen worden doorgegeven. De website die je probeert te bezoeken, valt onder deze Europese sanctie.

Vodafone

Ziggo is verplicht de sanctie uit te voeren en heeft de website geblokkeerd.

I'm connected through Ziggo so this surprises me. It's working for me without any problems.

It might be DNS poisoning?

My DNS resolvers are:

  2001:730:3e42:1000::53
  2001:b88:1002::10
  2001:b88:1202::10
  84.116.46.23
  84.116.46.22

I just checked and cannot reach RT from Germany, using the ISP provided DNS server. I think that is key.

I tried using german isp dns, rt.com is blocked.

That's shocking.

given that rumble was ordered to remove what I can only assume is rt and decided to just stop serving the country instead, It's certainly banned at the very least in France itself.
