Putin signs law fining foreign-service logins and recommendation violations
Original: 😈 Президент РФ подписал закон о штрафах за авторизацию через иностранные сервисы и нарушения рекомендательных технологий
The President of Russia has signed a law introducing administrative fines for violations of rules on user authorisation on Russian websites, including logging in through foreign services, as well as breaches of rules governing recommendation technologies. The amendments amend the Code of Administrative Offences. Observers see the measure as a further tightening of state control over how Russian internet users sign in to platforms and how sites recommend content.
Why now: A newly signed law expanding state control over online logins and recommendation algorithms is a significant development for Russian internet users and platforms.
