What does the regional subscription take? The level of incomes of citizens in the region, but neither as a currency exchange rate
In early 2014 1USD was about 30 rub and today it's 58 rub so your money is worth half as much but sub cost was still the same.

It sucks if you can't afford it but it makes sense for SE to be asking for more, what surpises me is it took this long to get adjusted.
