Anthem

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) provisionally lifted the ban on the Russian Olympic Committee, allowing athletes to return to international competitions. However, the IOC has not yet decided whether Russia can display its flag, colors, or have its anthem played at the Games.

Russia's national rhythmic gymnastics team withdrew from the World Challenge Cup in Romania after organizers banned their national flag and anthem, which the team claims violates regulations.

Companies frequently shut down online game servers, leaving players unable to access purchased titles. A group called Stop Killing Games is advocating for consumer protection laws to address this issue, as communities struggle to keep games alive through unofficial means.
