This is the exact quote, folks. No games!
It's anything but a happy General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) day for several major U.S. news organizations as their websites are temporarily blocked in Europe as a new data privacy law goes into effect today.
Websites such as the LA Times, NY Daily News and Chicago Tribune are all temporarily blocked this morning, saying their content is unavailable in most European countries.
Anyone trying to access the sites, which also include those owned by Tronc and Lee Enterprises (examples include Orlando Sentinel [Tronc], Arizona Daily Sun and the St. Louis Dispatch [Lee Entperises]) see a message explaining that the website is working with European authorities on trying to get access back as quickly as possible.

There are a number of hits on "Sklyarov" when I do a search. Perhaps you could narrow it down? Like, maybe a first and last name? Approximate date? Which country? Without clicking on any of the links I found in the search, we have a Sklyarov at Chernobyl, another battling Adobe, another found vulnerabilities is Siemen's hardware, an article on a photographer who takes "stunning" photographs - and so much more.
I'm going to guess that you mean Dmitry Sklyarov. https://www.sfgate.com/business/article/Charges-dropped-in-copyright-case-Russian-2840861.php [sfgate.com] For some reason, or some combination of reasons, I didn't hear about him when his case was active. Probably because I wasn't really "connected" to the world in those days - I spent most of my time on the road, and had little to do with the technical world.
