No worries, in this section, you will learn the why.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2016, the Russian data regulation law made it clear: if you are a social media platform in the country, you will have to let the Russian Government access the user data. LinkedIn was one of the first social media platforms to be banned in the country for failing to comply with the state\u2019s law.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">X, then Twitter, was banned in the country in March 2022, with the country\u2019s relations with Ukraine taking a tense turn.
