Belarus: Microsoft's Russification Policy

Categories: Eastern & Central Europe, Belarus, Digital Activism, Protest, Technology

br23 blog encourages [1] Belarusian Internet users to write to Microsoft to protest what appears to be the company's Russification policy: “If in your browser settings you chose Belarusian as the first language […], then all the materials on support.microsoft.com [2] would always appear to you in Russian. Even if you explicitly append “/be” to the article’s URL, it will still display all articles in Russian.”
