That's not how DNS works, at all.
It's basically a distributed phonebook, it doesn't control the flow of traffic.
If your suggesting everyone should reconfigure their recursors not to respond to Russian IPs then - slow clap - at best you've just slowed the flow of truth into Russia. Russian ISPs run their own recursors, so the majority of users won't notice.
If you're suggesting everyone should update their authoritatives to not respond to russian recursors, good luck with getting that in place.
The internet is part of how we get the truth into Russia - showing what's really happening, and undermining the states lies. Fucking with connectivity harms that goal, whilst doing very, very little in terms of positive impact
