This appeared in the press today here. Any truth?
Does it mean Fido-R50 will be isolated as well ?

***************************************************************************** Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a law to isolate the internet in Russia from the rest of the world. All Russian internet traffic will from then on have to go through servers in their own country.
According to the government, which published the law on Wednesday, the measure must protect the country against, for example, cyber attacks by other countries or prevent a worldwide failure of the internet. The measure will take effect on 1 November.
Critics also see the law as a way for the government to increase its control over the internet. Through the isolated network - also known as the "digital Iron Curtain" - it is easier for the government to censor content and monitor internet traffic and it becomes more difficult to circumvent restrictions. The telecom watchdog Roskomnadzor also gets more powers to intervene.
At the beginning of March, thousands of people had argued against the law in Russia. However, after three readings, the text hit the parliament fairly quickly.
