Russia is weird and according to new law, in short, hentai=CP. Any hentai, not only loli/shotacon!
First Russian hentai-sites are already blocked. Today, for example, authorities require to close /h/ and /ho/ forums on 2ch.hk, the fastest Russian imageboard (newslink on Russian), although the servers and domain isn't located in Russia :genius:

Also, using TOR or i2p or any other anonymizer is getting outlaw too (law is on discussion) "Great China Firewall" is coming to Яussia.

Links on Russian: hentai, tor
Sorry for bad Engslih, if any.

Why would they(politicians) even care about hentai? Don't they have anything else better to do?

In Russia all problems are solved and there are nothing to care about except smoking fast-foods and hentai

Seriously: they just trying too create viability of action(they are carrying about people and trying to do something good to them) and distract from real laws that focused on making more many for them(politicians).

People in Japan don't like furries that much. They prefer lolis and tentacles. And magical girls.

They've pretty much made being able to talk about gay people illegal, so this wouldn't surprise me.

Wrong, they made illegal propaganda of "gayness" :P to schools, tvs and other places where it may influence a child.
Other then that talking about gay people isn't illegal, but as usual society will punch/kill you if they find out you are gay.

Yes, but "where it may influence a child" is extraordinarily vague. Where does the line actually stop? In the street? In the home? It's a vastly stupid law and whoever ratified it needs to be shot if only for the vagueness, not even the homophobia involved in it.

You do realize my post is "extraordinarily vague" :P, the law itself is much more detailed, but Im to lazy to check it up, all I can say it's not as bad as an Ukrainian law in the making which tells that women must get married/pregnant till 21, otherwise they are sent into the army. It also includes that people are free to throw rocks at badly behaved women(as well as badly dressed) on the streets, people won't be jailed for that.

Russia censors Dostoyevsky for "child porn."

"The government censor, at the time Dostoevsky submitted his book, suppressed the chapter "At Tikhon's", which concerns Stavrogin's confession of having molested a 14 year old girl, causing the girl to commit suicide. The chapter gives insight into the reason that Stavrogin later hangs himself, as his guilt for this transgression and others, including the murder of his wife and brother in law, ultimately catch up with him. Stavrogin is depicted as the embodiment of nihilism, being apathetic, lacking empathy, devoid of emotion, but his ultimate suicide makes clear that in the end he had a conscience and was overwhelmed by his guilt. The chapter is generally included in modern editions of the novel and also published separately, translated from Russian to English by S. S. Koteliansky and Virginia Woolf and edited by Sigmund Freud."

Therefore, my next tentacle rape cartoon is a work of literary genius.

What ya'll gotta realize is just because something is generally unfavored, it doesn't mean it's okay to just get rid of (sans genuinely harmful things). Hentai is art. While i don't watch it and i find it kinda strange, it's still someone's hard work with stencils or digital or whatever means the method is driven by. Sure, it's a..strange creativity to have girls with abnormally large chests bouncing around like gravity doesn't exist, but it still took someone's time, effort, and creativity to draw every single frame and keep it in line. Heck, hentai visual novels tend to have fantastic art and/or story (I've personally read Tsukihime and the story for it is superb)..It's a bit of a bad mindset to be ignorant about something and claim it all to be the same 'girl gets tentacle raped' thing..It's really not. Sure, things generally get out of hand in most from what i understand, but people have their fetishes and most people have at least one that is socially unacceptable.

Hentai is art. Art is creativity. While it may be a strange way to express it, such laws stifle creativity and honestly we as humans have creativity as one of our strongest point. Nobody is forcing you to watch hentai. Nobody is forcing you to buy it or create it yourself. But i will say if some silly drawing about sexual acts gets you all 'oh that's wrong' in the head..i'd have to say you're a close-minded individual. It's a drawing. It's something you can choose to avoid and there's no reason why it should even really be classified as porn, let alone banned. What's next? Gonna ban those naked statues because oh noes they have boobies and that one has a penis? Come on. There's far bigger things we should be worrying about in terms of world growth.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Tsukihime is on my list to read. You should give Saya no Uta a try, really a great story.

Kara no Shoujo is one of my all time favorite games, just because it has some (forced) sex scenes, doesn't mean it shouldn't be enjoyed.

I find it funny that Russia technically want to "Prosecute" the US Government over the Tor network, as they "fund" it in addition to having a hand in it original creation. Tor was originally setup to provide a free private browser to areas where their private freedom are severely truncated. It would allow people in areas where they couldn't use the internet privately to get word out to the world.. Unfortunately, the privacy thing became appealing to black markets and such. There is a community on the Tor network promoting freedom of speech and privacy, however, just like the real internet, there is a dark side to the Onion Network which is even more dark than the darkside of the web because of fact that it is even harder to track people down using Tor, although it can be done.. xD
(Copied from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tor_%28anonymity_network%29 )
Originally sponsored by the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (which had been instrumental in the early development of onion routing under the aegis of DARPA), Tor was financially supported by the Electronic Frontier Foundation from 2004 to 2005. Tor software is now developed by the Tor Project, which has been a 501(c)(3) research-education nonprofit organization based in the United States of America since December 2006. It has a diverse base of financial support; the U.S. State Department, the Broadcasting Board of Governors, and the National Science Foundation are major contributors. As of 2012, 80% of the Tor Project's $2M annual budget comes from the United States government, with the Swedish government and other organizations providing the rest, including NGOs and thousands of individual sponsors.
