Roskomnadzor began testing in public places (cafes, parks, business centers, etc.) . in different regions of Russia

The supervisory agency interested in the following: whether the operators filtered blocked sites in Russia or not, “Izvestia” writes. If the performance requirements of the law does not, operator fined. This information “News” confirmed the spokesman Roskomnadzor Vadim Ampelonsky

-. This planned work for the execution of operators of communication requirements for blocking Web sites and pages of sites, – said Ampelonsky

Today. day only know about the results of Roskomnadzor management inspection on the central federal region: checked more than 400 wireless access points. As a result of the work it was found 15 violations. Ampelonsky noted that the place in which the connection to Wi-Fi, chosen so as not to double-check the same service provider.

According to the government decree number 1101 of 2012, each operator must regard ” unload daily information and network addresses that are used to identify the sites from the Uniform domain name registry, as well as restrict access to such sites to their subscribers. ” Inspectors of the supervisory authority monitoring the unloading of the registry information, and if it does not happen, then the provider draw for violation of the discharge procedure.

According to the official representative of Roskomnadzor, the administration cafes, business centers and other public places with wireless point access Wi-FI, under current law, are not responsible for the fact that they can not be blocked sites, made in a single register. The responsibility for this is provided only for service providers – they are attracted by art. 14.1 h. 3 of the Administrative Code (a fine for legal entities and 40 thousand. Rubles) for violation of the terms and conditions of licenses.

It should be noted, not so long ago, the Ministry of Communications has prepared a bill that increases the extent of liability of operators. The document proposes not blocked for each operator communication link or IP-address, which was introduced by Roskomnadzor single register of information banned in Russia, to impose a fine for officials in the amount of 3-5 thousand rubles, for entrepreneurs -. 10-30 thousand rubles. on legal entities scrip increases significantly and range from 50 to 100 thous. rubles.

not all telecom operators promptly block illegal sites, and some even do not. In mid-February, Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev at a meeting of the government council for cinematography at VGIK, by connecting to a local Wi-Fi-network with its tablet, tried to go to a blocked website in Russian RuTracker.org. Make it could premiere at the first attempt, which he was very indignant. Ampelonsky then explained that Internet provider “Yumos Center”, which provided services to VGIK, was in the process of eliminating those shortcomings.

President of the Regional Association of Communication Operators (AROS) Yuri Dombrowski expressed surprise test methods.

«I do not understand why the inspectors Roskomnadzor walk the cafe? – Wonders Dombrowski. – You could do a lot easier and save a lot of money. Just had to ask for service providers to make their online form through which you can check, filters whether the operator is prohibited sites or not. »

Andrei Kolesnikov (the former head of the National Internet Domain Coordination Center) believes that it is not set Roskomnadzor operators on its network of automated monitoring system, the current approach has a right to exist. However, when checking the sites should take into account the fact that the introduction of the registry banned site may change your IP, and therefore, when testing may be available for all users. For getting access to such a resource fine can not, it’s «curvature of the law, not a bug operator».

It should be noted, in the Russian Federation website content may be declared illegal by a court ( for example, due to copyright) disorders. In addition, sites can be blocked in accordance with the law “On protection of children from information harmful to their health and development.” According to government regulation, the identification of pornographic material on the Web should be engaged Roskomnadzor; Looking for information on illicit drug trafficking and propaganda – the Federal Service for Drug Control; detect materials with propaganda of suicide and to identify information harmful to children’s health – Rospotrebnadzor; search of gambling – The Federal Tax Service. Also, according to the law «On Information, Information Technologies and Protection of Information» PGO reveals the web of extremist materials.

Address resource with illegal content is sent to Roskomnadzor, which maintains a register of banned sites . Before locking the site administrator is sent a notice to the removal of illegal information. If the demand is not met in time, the site is added to the blacklist and block.
