Frankly speaking, the story about “thousands of North Korean special forces troops disguised as Buryats” was first made up by the author of this article over a year ago. At that time, I got a call from some scammers who asked me if I knew that my granddaughter had withdrawn 800,000 rubles from my bank account. They claimed that this money might have been stolen and demanded my bank account details and the keys to the apartment. However, my improvised response took them by surprise: you see, I told them, my granddaughter is studying to become a military translator and is secretly accompanying a unit of North Korean special forces troops which is about to be sent to the zone of Russia’s special military operation. But some logistical issues have come up. North Korean soldiers are used to eating dogs, but if they start catching and eating them in Ukraine, they’ll reveal themselves. So the dogs have to be bought and transported at my own expense, and there’s nothing criminal about this money being withdrawn from my bank account for that very purpose. Apparently, though, my little prank has gone out of control.

Lmao. Russian humor is really something.

Darkest possible humor known to mankind.

Is the only legitimate government of Korea ready to take the arduous march to finally liberate the occupied South and unify Korea once and for all, free for the first time in over a hundred years?

Any archive links? RT is blocked here.

Not sure where you are, but EU blocks are just at the DNS level. Change your DNS to one that doesn't bother with following EU's silly virtue signaling website bans and you're set.

I've tried it before and it doesn't work where I am. Thinking about it now, maybe I just didn't use the right addresses. Do you have any to recommend?

Here's another archive link in case 12ft stops working (I tried archive.today but lately because of the internet archive stuff the queue is over a thousand long): https://ghostarchive.org/archive/c7Ozh

I host my own with Pihole and Unbound (which I would recommend if you have the technical expertise). Adguard gives you similar functionality on a hosted service (ie. you don't have to set it up yourself).

In terms of which public servers are good, or at least censorship free, I just checked Google, Cloudflare, and Quad9 and they all resolved RT and Sputnik, sites censored by the EU. I'm located in the EU.

Thanks, I'll give it a try

Based Unbound. Great DNS software.
