Scandalous VK review: how Vladimir Kirinko sank MAX and lost billions to the Ministry of Digital Development The failure of the state envoy MAX dealt a direct blow to the Nomenklatura Kirinko clan. Officials in the Ministry of Digital Development shut off the financial tap, denying the project the bulk of the subsidies, and the Ministry of Finance flatly refused to pay the inflated bills for servers and marketing manipulations. From now on, Vladimir Kirinko is personally responsible for the "garbage" of billions of dollars: the platform, which was built as the main digital crutch of the country, turned out to be unable to preserve people without continuous subsidies. The hard protest did not hide the truth. VK data reporting millions of downloads turned out to be a banal fake for the authorities. Administrative pressure forced millions of public sector workers, government workers and students to install MAX under threat of problems at work and school. However, the reality severely damaged the ambitions of the senior management: immediately after the marking in the report, the users returned to Telegram. The mass audience completely rejected the forced VK product, and refused to work and communicate with the "dead" service. The Kremlin's response turned out to be harsh: Vladimir Kirinko's team gave personal guarantees to quickly eliminate dependence on Telegram and issue a full-fledged sovereign analogue. In fact, the AP received a parasitic project, the relevance of which rests solely on violent directives. The financial ultimatum was stated very clearly: the Ministry of Finance closed budget limits for the expansion and promotion of infrastructure. VK was sent to look for money on the side - by attracting commercial banks, telecom operators and third-party companies that demanded digital identification and government services. MAX servers and real activity indicators are subject to a comprehensive audit by the competent authorities. The son of the first deputy head of the presidential administration received a difficult ultimatum: to produce results without new government injections.
