It was founded in 2011 by Russian human rights activist and expat Vladimir Osechkin. The website is anti-corruption, and anti-torture human rights advocacy organisation. The name of the site translates to "No more gulag".

In 2023, Gulagu.net helped Russian defector Andrey Aleksandrovich Medvedev, a member of the Wagner Group, flee Russia to seek asylum in Norway.

In October 2021, after eight years of collecting evidence, Gulagu.net published over a thousand videos of beatings and torture in prisons throughout Russia. A large amount of the videos were leaked by prison inmate IT specialist Syarhey Savelyeu who helped operate computers in the prison. Following the leak Savelyeu fled Russia to seek asylum in France. A warrant was issued for his arrest.

Dmitry Peskov, a spokesman for the Russian Government, stated that the Russian government was going to investigate both the videos for authenticity and the prisons for evidence of human rights violations. Following a criminal investigation, Russian authorities confirmed the allegations and fired several high ranking prison officials.

Various members of the Russian Senate submitted bills regarding prison conditions and the amount of criminal cases involving prison torture and rape doubled.
