FAF Client 2025.7.1 shows authorization error that was not there a few hours ago

[Rayhard_Rau]

FAF Client 2025.7.1 shows authorization error.
My FAF has been working for a long time. But today I received an update, played, turned off the computer, turned it on, turned on the client, and it showed an error:

Client Version: 2025.7.1
org.springframework.web.reactive.function.client.WebClientRequestException: handshake timed out after 10000ms
at org.springframework.web.reactive.function.client.ExchangeFunctions$DefaultExchangeFunction.lambda$wrapException$9(ExchangeFunctions.java:137)
Suppressed: The stacktrace has been enhanced by Reactor, refer to additional information below:
Assembly trace from producer [reactor.core.publisher.MonoErrorSupplied] :

I looked at Windows Defender, suddenly there was a blocking of FAF, I disabled the blocking, rebooted the computer, but the problem did not disappear. What to do?

[Rayhard_Rau]

I figured it out. It was the fascists who broke the Internet. Everyone knows what to do with a criminal dictatorship that breaks the Internet.

We make memes out of them?

[Rayhard_Rau]

Meme? What does a meme have to do with it?
Sorry. I don't want to seem like a bore, a psycho, a dumb moralizer or hostile, I just want you to understand what I'm trying to tell you now. When someone makes a meme here, other people will start having real problems.

"Russia Cracks Down on Internet Searches and VPNs With New Fines", July 17, 2025 at 6:19 PM, "Bloomberg":
"Russia’s State Duma approved new fines for searching for content considered “extremist” and virtual private network providers that enable access to that material as authorities deepen a long-running crackdown on the internet.
Fines for individuals found to be deliberately searching for prohibited content online, including through the use of a VPN, will face fines of as much as 5,000 rubles ($64), according to amendments published on the State Duma’s website."
"Russia blocked nearly 800,000 web pages in 2024 alone, 19% more than in the previous year, Interfax reported citing the country’s communications watchdog Roskomnadzor."

"Digital Development Minister Maksut Shadaev said law enforcement would have to prove that users intended to view extremist materials and that merely accessing platforms would not be penalised.
It was not immediately clear how the authorities would determine intent in an online search. The lack of clarity has left many feeling uneasy.

"For now, the law applies only to the search for extremist materials, but there is no guarantee," Mizulina wrote on Telegram. "The list could be expanded in a couple of days.""

"Russian Anti-Extremism Legislation and Internet Censorship", 23 Apr 2019, "Brill", "Maria Kravchenko":
"This article is focused on the enforcement of Russian anti-extremist legislation through web regulation. Russian law enforcement has shifted from a focus on preventing terrorist violence to a focus on prosecuting online hate speech and anti-authority rhetoric under current anti-extremist and anti-terrorist laws. The vague definition of extremist activity in federal law has been broadly interpreted by law enforcement agencies. Through the idea of public security, Russian law enforcement agencies have overestimated the threat of online content without regard for the context, audience, and impact of online statements. The result has been a steady increase in blocked access to web pages and sanctions on web users and providers."

"In the wake of new safety laws, UK users are flocking to VPNs searching for workarounds to bypass the new age verification law.
Just days after strict new age verification rules kicked in across the UK, the use of apps that mask online locations has exploded, potentially damaging the government's controversial plan to make the internet safer for kids.
The move marks one of the most aggressive pushes yet by a Western government to regulate what minors can see online."

"UK high court hears Wikipedia suit against Online Safety Act category rules", Jul 25, 2025, 2:04 pm EDT, "Biometrics Research Group, Inc.":
"...
All of these questions have a place in the current legal challenge that Wikipedia has mounted against the UK Online Safety Act, and specifically against its Categorization Regulations.
A statement from the Wikimedia Foundation says “the legal challenge focuses solely on the new Categorization Regulations that risk imposing Category 1 duties (the OSA’s most stringent obligations) on Wikipedia.”
...
The foundation says that Category 1 demands would “undermine the privacy and safety of Wikipedia’s volunteer contributors, expose the encyclopedia to manipulation and vandalism, and divert essential resources from protecting people and improving Wikipedia, one of the world’s most trusted and widely used digital public goods.”
One particular sticking point is identity verification. Wikimedia worries that imposing ID verification requirements on anonymous volunteer moderators who edit entries would undermine their privacy and pose potential risks. “In addition to being exceptionally burdensome, this requirement – which is just one of several Category 1 demands – could expose contributors to data breaches, stalking, lawsuits, or even imprisonment by authoritarian regimes,” it says."

So what's a joke for you today and a chopping block tomorrow is a chopping block for tens of millions of other people right now. Do you understand? Fines for SEARCHING FOR KNOWLEDGE! And if you search again - you're a repeat offender, prison. People are pissing boiling water from their eyes, and not giggling at memes. And what will officials declare extremism or dangerous for children next time? What else will be needed to access the Internet: a photo not of a face, but of a spleen, an imprint of an ass, tons of blood for the biometric signing of all the satanic contracts and agreements of any upstart on every corner? The wording of the laws is deliberately made vague and imprecise. Looked at a meme, connected to a social network, played a game - a fine and jail. A global trend even in first world countries. I have provided examples of precedents.

Everyone knows what to do with a criminal dictatorship that breaks the Internet.

The hard sad reality is: nothing will happen. This already happens in North Korea and in China for decades. The only people capable of changing the system are the russians themselves. And even if the government kills its own protesting people, nothing happens (see Tian’anmen massacre 1989).

So what can a random internet forum with people from all over the world do about it? Nothing, except making memes.

And to put it into perspective: the world already looks away while both russian and isrealien troops performs war crimes every day. Against children in school, against wounded people in hospitals, against civilians in general. Maybe that should be a higher priority in the world.

Making fun of things (this is what making memes is) is a way for people to cope with the hard sad reality that they cannot change. By the way complaining here in this forum will also not contribute to solving any of the problems you quoted...

[Rayhard_Rau]

In short, I made a starting message about a broken connection, and after that I found a solution to the problem. So I had to add an explanatory message with an answer to my own question, so that the interlocutors would not get confused. It is a pity that fixing the problem can create lags and disconnections or become inoperative at any time for many different reasons, there is a constant feeling of unreliability and vulnerability.

It is really not appropriate to write more about crime and politics here than has already been written.

[Rayhard_Rau]

Suddenly. The new version of the client 2025.9.0 has just been released, I updated it and now made the first connection. The client connected by itself without any other things. This is great! Thank you!
