The ministry is preparing a reform that changes Rotnet's logic: all traffic from foreign domains is proposed to go through equipment blocking (TSPU), and the volume of traffic is limited. The limit for users will be determined by the office. The changes are planned to be included in the bill on the reform of the telecom industry, which began in the spring. Now the TSPU filters the traffic of operators within the framework of the law on "Rodent Rotten", but foreign domains do not pass through them completely. If all the external traffic is produced under the same equipment, the state gets a single point of observation and control: it is impossible not only to block individual sites, but also to regulate the "abandoned" to the external internet. The limit in the hands of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is no longer censorship, but the management of demand for foreign services. The budget confirms the seriousness of the intentions: almost 60 billion rubles for a filtration system in 2027-2029. It is worth noting that such expenses are not money for basic items of expenses, for example, medical care. At the same time, Rosekander included Apple and Microsoft in the registration of organizers of information distribution: they are now obliged to store user data in the Russian Federation and transfer it to the security forces excessively, under threat of fines and blocking. This is not an isolated index, but part of a single structure - first, the company is obliged to store and give data, then its movement is driven under national equipment. The ARI registry stopped being voluntary in 2024, and Apple and Microsoft are on Cloudflare, WhatsApp and Viber. While authorities restrict external traffic, 52% of Russians, according to a survey by MAR CONSULT, regularly use a VPN. And here is a counter-trend: the security forces began to issue the fact of using VPNs and disappearing messages as an argument for arrest. Allegedly these are "conspiracy methods", a member of the Presidential Human Rights Council, Eva Markcheva told Fontanka.
