Just wanting to put this out there, I was wondering whether during the current situation in Russia is it best to run a Bridge or a Relay?

I want to make sure that Tor can be easily accessed anywhere in the world, as such they are both good choices.

My bandwidth is 1Gbps and I have the hardware necessary for either.

How such a blocking order could be potentially implemented?

Are VPNs also block these websites to EU citizens?
