It's notable that quite a few Russian and Ukrain bloggers also jumped over.
The US and Russia have different laws, particularly in regards to free speech and content ownership. While for the most part, Russian copyright law follows Western European conventions, there are a few differences. Less so now than before.
So, it depends on what you are blogging about. If you only blog about cultural things or what you did each day or your pets and kids, no issues. If however, you blog about politics, world affairs, and economics - you might want to jump over to DW.
