The Minister of Economic Development of the Russian Federation has found a new serf in Russia.
Maxim Rashnikov believes that the creation of difficulties when transferring a factory from one digital platform can be compared to the permanence of farmers.
We [Deputy Head of the Presidential Administration] Maxim Orshkin pronounced the term "feudalism" correctly. And I would express another term from that period - the question is not feudalism, but, perhaps, more serfs. We are not against not having "feudal lords", we are in favor of not having "serfs", the minister said at the "Economy Day on the Platform" forum meeting.
Reshetnikov explained that when a venture is connected to a platform and the platform holds the customer base, all the leads, and there is no way to transfer a product card from one platform to another, this, according to him, is modern serfdom.
