Roskomnadzor has prepared an order according to which new users of social networks and instant messengers will have to provide their passport number, residence address, phone number and e-mail. The document was posted on the regulation.gov.ru portal on March 23, awaiting discussion from Mordor orks and even dark experts.

According to the document, Internet sites must receive additional consent from users for various purposes of data processing through their own consent collection platform or the Roskomnadzor system.

The project is being prepared within the framework of amendments to the law "On personal data", which partially entered into force in March.

Actually main thing here that it will be almost impossible to register new user without redirecting to special government site (that will serve as registration and login screen).

Freedom is coming (c).
