First of all, Navalny is not NGO and never been. He is a worst enemy of Putin and Putin is really afraid of him like shit.
Blocking/unlocking of pornsites is a constant game here and I believe it's all about money (pornhub was blocked, it gave a bribe to Roskomnadzor and was unblocked again...) Everybody knows how to avoid it, but I will count it. You finally named something that is formally allowed in the States and could be forbidden in Russia and the UK for example (those also block porn sites). But I would like to comment on that. If an American citizen accidentally visit a CP site which is obviously is unblocked. What will happen if the ISP reports him to police? He will go to jail, right? What will happen if a Russian citizen will do the same (and it doesn't matter if the site is blocked or not)? Right, nothing will happen, because there is no law to punish someone for visiting blocked or illegal sites. Yes, including casinos, drug dealing and CP ones. Foe example in Australia any porn video with a model that has a small breast is considered as a CP and gets punished accordingly...

Such a nice thing!!! They have finally legalized narcotics. What will be next? Meth? I'm happy for fellow Americans, but legalization of drugs that kill (yes, marihuana kills too) is not a freedom. On the other hand, legalization of prostitution is a freedom, because every human have a right on how to use his/her own body. In the USA prostitution is a criminal offense (illegal), in Russia it is not illegal.
So please name some freedoms in the USA that are not available to Russians, yeah something other than marijuana, meth, heroine etc. Something that really affects a normal human (not a junkie or an alcoholic*) in his daily life. Just something. Please 
* As about alcoholics. Yes I know that in the USA you can drive drunk and you can't be stopped by a cop to test for DUI w/o a reason. In Russia even a bottle of beer is a BIG NO, if you don't want to lose your driving license and spent 15 days in prison. So please, don't post about this "freedom". It's the same case as a freedom to smoke marijuana and meth.
On the other hand. In the USA you can't have an open bottle of alcohol even if you are a passenger (you don't drive). In Russia it's absolutely ok. If I'm not on a driver's place I can drink anything. Furthermore, drinking in public places is forbidden here just like in the USA, but if I'm in the car, I can drink anything and anyhow and joke on the guys in a police car near me (actually I did it right yesterday when my wife was driving her car
). I can even be naked there, piss into a bottle or have sex with someone, because a car is like a small house - it's mine and I can do anything inside of it. In the USA this won't fly
