Why we're not scoring this yet

We withhold an authority number until independent evidence (global rank, link-graph presence) has accrued. The facts we do have about this site are shown below — we'd rather say “not enough signals yet” than invent a low score.

Safety evidence

No unexpired threat-feed result; name-similarity check available (recorded about 40 days ago); 3/3 transport and email checks available (oldest recorded about 40 days ago). This is evidence coverage, not a probability that a website is safe.

Common questions

Is svobodanews.ru legit or a scam?

AboutUs doesn't label sites "legit" or "a scam": this page lists the dated registration, DNS, HTTPS, mail-authentication and safety checks we could verify, each with its source, so you can decide for yourself.

Who owns svobodanews.ru?

Nobody has completed AboutUs's owner verification for svobodanews.ru. That's true of most sites here — it isn't itself a warning sign.

Correction review promise

Official facts can help this public profile, but publication waits for moderation, evidence, and owner-proof gates.

Correction review promise: Every submitted official fact is saved for moderation before it can change the public profile.
Evidence before publication: Reviewers compare your official URL, evidence URL, and note against the visible report findings before accepting changes.
Owner proof before control: Unverified corrections can improve the report, but owner status, DNS control, and paid outcomes still require proof.
Secure same-site intake: AboutUs accepts this public correction only from AboutUs pages, keeps the response uncached, and rate-limits noisy requests.
