俄文版維基百科被禁一天後即獲解禁

Moscow on Tuesday lifted a ban on the Russian-language version of Wikipedia less than a day after imposing it.

俄羅斯官方週二解除了不到一天前實行的針對俄文版維基百科(Wikipedia)的禁令。

Internet regulator Roskomnadzor said an article about Charas, a form of hashish, ruled illegal by a local court in June, had now been sufficiently edited on Russian Wikipedia to put the online encyclopedia in compliance with the ruling.

互聯網監管機構——聯邦電信、信息技術和大衆傳媒監督局(Roskomnadzor)表示，俄文版維基百科上關於Charas（某種形式的印度大麻脂，6月份被俄羅斯一家法院裁定爲非法）的條目已得到充分編輯，這個在線百科全書網站遵守了法院裁決。

The webpage has therefore been excluded from its internet blacklist, it added.

該機構稱，相關網頁因此已被剔除出其互聯網黑名單。

Several Russian internet service providers started blocking access to the Russian-language Wikipedia site after the regulator added it to its registry of forbidden information on Monday.

該監管機構週一將俄文版維基百科列入封禁網站的名單後，俄羅斯幾家互聯網服務提供商開始屏蔽這個網站。

Internet users in some Russian regions saw a notice from the registry instead of the Wikipedia page when trying to access it.

俄羅斯某些地區的互聯網用戶在試圖訪問該網站的時候，會看到封禁網站登記機構的一份通知。

Wikipedia said the outlawing of some information triggered a blacklisting of the entire service because the website uses the secure protocol HTTPS which prevents the filtering and censoring of its content from the outside.

維基百科表示，某些信息被列爲非法，連累整個服務被列入黑名單，因爲該網站使用HTTPS加密協議，使第三方無法從外部過濾和審查網站內容。

Russian Wikipedia said the entry in question had already been edited to rely only on public scientific and UN sources before Monday’s ban.

俄文版維基百科表示，在週一遭遇封禁之前，相關條目已經過編輯，完全採用了公開科學和聯合國資料來源。

The lifting of the ban defuses what threatened to become the most serious fallout yet from growing Russian internet censorship on global internet services. So far, stricter internet regulations introduced over the past three years have mainly hit Russia’s online media.

解除禁令化解了俄羅斯對全球互聯網服務不斷強化審查本來有可能產生的最嚴重後果。到目前爲止，過去三年更嚴格的互聯網法規主要打擊了俄羅斯的在線媒體。

However, the shortlived ban demonstrated to a larger audience the impact stricter internet control rules introduced in early 2014 can have. Since then, the authorities have had the power to blacklist websites without a court order.

然而，這一短暫的禁令向世人展示了2014年年初出臺的更嚴格互聯網控制規則可能產生的衝擊。自那以來，當局有權在沒有法庭命令授權的情況下將網站列入黑名單。

Following these legal changes, the list of web pages blocked in Russia on orders of the prosecutor-general has quickly grown. Information on drugs tops the list of reasons given for blocking orders, but charges of extremism and threats to state security are also common.

法律變化出爐後，根據俄羅斯總檢察長的命令被封的網頁列表迅速變長。封禁名單上給出的最常見理由是含有有關毒品的信息，但極端主義和威脅國家安全的罪名也很常見。
