Let's try to figure out what happened to the attendance of Russian sites two weeks after the Russian social networks were blocked in Ukraine. There will be little text and many pictures.
So, there is such a service, showing the attendance of Russian sites - liveinternet. En. On his data and rely on.
First, let's look at the number of visitors to all Russian sites from Ukraine.
In this picture (and subsequent ones) a thin blue line is the daily number of visitors to the runet, thick - averaged over 7 previous days. By thick it is easier to determine the trend.
so. Ukraine. There were about 24 million visitors every day, it became - about 10 million. Less than 14 million. Remember this number.
By the way, not all providers for this moment have blocked access.
In addition, do not be confused - not all sites runet blocked. Only those who are members of the Yandex holding company and the holding company Mail. RU.
Let's go further. After the blocking in Ukraine, the ratings of all kinds of services soaring to go to the "banned". Such services substitute "citizenship" and users are considered visitors from other countries.
Countries that shelter "migrants" are easily detected. There are four of them - Germany, Netherlands, the USA and Great Britain. It was from these countries that the number of visitors to the sites of Runet.
Germany.
There were about 2 million visitors, there were about 2. 8M. Plus 0. 8M.
USA.
It was about 1. 6 million, there were about 2 million. Plus 0. 4M.
Netherlands.
There was 0. 25 million, was 1. 25M. Plus 1 million.
United Kingdom.
There was 0. 68 million, became 0. 93 million. Plus 0. 25M.
We estimated all this approximately, but the order of figures is clear.
Total. Runet lost about 14 million "Ukrainians". And bought 0. 8 + 0. 4 + 1 + 0. 25 = 2. 45 million "foreigners".
That is, the total loss of RuNet from the Ukrainian Internet blockade amounted to about 11. 5 million visitors daily.
Now let's look at the information on visitors to social networks - VC and OK. According to Yandex and other sites, statistics, unfortunately, is closed.
In contact with.
There were about 92 million, there were about 83 million. Minus 9 million.
Classmates.
There were about 46 million, there were about 44 million. Minus 2 million. Suddenly a small drop.
Well, finally, interesting information from the website Watcher - according to their information, the number of Ukrainian Facebook users over the past two weeks has increased by 1. 5 million.
While we can say that of the 14 million visitors who have lost access to the sanction sites, they used anti-blockade services only 2. 5M. This is approximately 18%. The others are either too lazy, or unable to learn the ways and apply blocking bypass, or they did not really need those sites.
I will observe the situation and continue. If I see something interesting - I'll write.
