Thanks for sharing. I believe this is entirely reasonable given the trend of data breaches, which occur everyday. LinkedIn suffered one of the largest breaches, which compromised millions of users.
Corporations think that they can disregard the laws of nations and act as independent entities. They use their financial power to influence legislation and steal freedom from individuals. Unbiased regulation is needed to stop expropriation.
It's a shame that the article depicted this as censorship. Russia has been under heavy and unjust criticism for quite a while now.

I think calling WebRTC a behemoth is a bit of an understatement. Excuse my sharp-tongued criticism, since I understand a lot of hard work has gone into it, but WebRTC has no regard for interoperability. As of now, it is nothing more to me than a VPN deanonymizing exploit.
WebRTC leaks true IP addresses unless it is outright disabled in [supported] browsers. It is a huge annoyance, and I would be hard-pressed to view it as more than a gimmick that complicates the already messy landscape of web development.
