We Are Taking a Stand Against Russian Aggression

By Louis Ferreira | Published: March 4, 2022


We have asked our hosting company to block all traffic from Russia at the IP level until further notice on FujiAddict, SonyAdddict, 43Addict, Nikonrumors, Photorumors, Leicarumors, and Pentax Rumors. We feel it is important for everyone to do their part to support the Ukrainian people and to make clear to the Russian people that the illegal occupation of Ukraine is not acceptable. We do not blame the Russian people for this occupation, but they are the only ones that can bring this to an end peacefully.

We strongly encourage others to do the same.

СЛАВА УКРАЇНІ!
