I remember RELCOM playing a significant part in distributing the suppressed news about the Soviet coup attempt of 1991-- where their 300bps store-and-forward UUCP connections avoided the censorship of regular voice and fax communications. Possibly a point worth mentioning after a substantial reference can be found. 203.14.156.192 22:28, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Have added a paragraph, thank you! --ssr 02:43, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Calling RELCOM "one of the first Russian computer networks" seems like a huge overstatement since there have been dozens of Soviet networks based on a huge variety of own protocols since 1959. Maybe "one of the first Russian TCP/IP-based networks" would be a correct though. --eugrus (talk) 22:17, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
