Wikipedia shuts down in Russia: Teaches you how to grow hashish

Russia still maintains a strict stance against social networks.

A few days ago, the use of the website Reddit was banned in this country. Meanwhile, on Monday evening, Russia shut down the entire Wikipedia page after it revealed an article that featured "instructions" on how to grow hashish.

Since Wikipedia uses HTTPS on its website, as does Reddit, the Russian government is able to censor a single page containing objectionable information.

Wikipedia immediately edited the article and now the website is accessible in Russia. However, Russian netizens point out that apart from the title, nothing else has changed in the article.
