Public Council under the Federal Security Service of Russia believes that the program, masking user data Internet , should be prohibited. The proposal appealed to the parliamentarians of the FSB, explaining his desire to protect young people from the harmful effects of the Web.

“This is not about the introduction of total censorship of Internet content, but to establish a reasonable balance between freedom of information and liability for breach of statutory rights as citizens,” – said the Chairman of the Public Council under the Federal Security Service of Russia Vasily Titov the official website of the Board.

The department acknowledged that the measures taken to prohibit access to certain sites, as well as to the removal from the servers of prohibited materials is not enough. It turned out that users can bypass the ban, with programs encrypting traffic and hide as the transmitted information and user information.

to such programs and funds of the FSB carried the proxies, such as a set of Tor, built on a distributed peer to peer scheme, each node which encrypts all data traffic. Even at breaking one of the computers involved in such a network, the most that will siloviki – the address of the network nodes that need to be found and yet to crack. However, given the network topology, neighboring nodes may be physically located on another continent.

“In order to clean up the industry, it is necessary to take a clear law that will specify the sanctions that can keep the programmers from the desire to create malicious software” – quoted by “The News” a member of the Public Council of the Russian Federal Security Service Anatoly Kucherenu.

However, the effectiveness of the proposals developed by the Public Council under the Federal Security Service, the experts are skeptical. “The ban came to nothing lead, there are many ways to work around it. For example, you can substitute a fictional IP-address, and then no one will know the user has anonymizer or not. C evils to be fought with the help of positive initiatives, not through punitive measures, “- says the president of the information democracy Ilya Massukh.

“It is clear that the person who signs his real name not be used obscene language and making shocking statements – said General Director of the Agency for Political and Economic Communications Dmitry Orlov. – But forced ban anonymity can provoke participants in the information field to search for alternative ways of concealing the identity “.

Recall that in November 2012 the Duma Committee on Media, headed by the deputy Alexei Mitrofanov, has prepared a legislative initiative, which is intended to extend the list of user data required for its registration in social networks. As one of the authors of the idea Vadim Dengin, this “universal practice”. Monitor the accuracy of the data entered are planning to charge the FSB and the Interior Ministry (which is planned to expand the department “K”), but how they will implement this control, there is no clarity.
