Deputies are going to ban the use of imported equipment for communication in Russia

Russian lawmakers may soon begin work on a draft law on the complete replacement of equipment for communication from imported to domestic. Today, the share of foreign communications equipment in Russia reaches 85-90%.
In addition, the deputy community can begin work on another bill, the author of which is a representative of the "United Russia" Sergei Zheleznyak. Zheleznyak’s initiative looks as follows: it proposes to ban the placement of Russians’s personal data on foreign servers, as well as to prohibit the placement of state structures on the same foreign servers. And if, in principle, everything is clear with the placement of state structures, then with the placement of Russians' personal information on foreign servers, everything is not so simple. If we recall that millions of Russians themselves quite willingly publish information about themselves on social networks running on foreign servers, the ban on such a publication, and most importantly, the effectiveness of such a ban looks extremely doubtful. If the ban is formalized by law, will it mean that the Russian will not be able to use his personal page in one of the foreign social networks (for example, Facebook or Instagram gaining popularity in Russia)? Does this mean that Russians will not be able to publish ads with personal information on sites running on servers abroad? If so then announcement KhMAO or any other Russian region in which, for example, a telephone number is indicated, by which a person can be contacted to purchase an apartment, a car or household appliances, becomes illegal.
It is clear that such initiatives were generated by our deputies after the revelations that Edward Snowden allowed himself. After information about the potential and already implemented surveillance of the NSA and the CIA, literally every owner of a mobile phone or computer initiative becomes more and more interesting. And if the initiative with the transition to domestic communications equipment looks quite viable (if this equipment in sufficient quantities and at an acceptable level of quality will be made), then the prohibitions on publishing personal data outside Russian servers look overkill.

It's time to disperse this State Duma. They compose a bunch of all nonsense, God forbid it is also forced to execute.

And how is the Duma going to eliminate these percentages? In order to pass such laws, you first need to create a base for domestic communications equipment. Trynding in parliament is not necessary for this special talent.

Edik Snowden is a dummy clown to warm up the alleged confrontation between the USA and the Russian Federation (Is this also happening on this site, did everyone notice?). Deputies are a venal, arrogant rabble who betrayed the Russian people. At the poles ....., with their ropes, soon .. ......

On the pillars ....., with their ropes

For the sake of such an event, I’m even ready to provide fragrant soaps for free!

Does it have its own? Although, if only assembly in Russia is meant, then the kit can be from anywhere.

... And the first thing to confiscate the service iPad and iPhone from the very same deputies of the State Duma of the Russian Federation :)

By the way, our secret services have already banned the use of phones and tablets from an apple !!! There, at the hardware level, everything is flashed and you’ll remove the battery!

In order to replace imported equipment with your own, you need to have it and be sufficiently reliable. So to chat and people saw "work".

... which allowed myself Edward Snowden.

Some kind of phrase, as if condemning Snowden.

... ban Placement on the same foreign servers of the platform of government agencies.

Absolutely correct!
Yes, I would love to change my cell to Russian. I understand that people who do not have state secrets and secrets are not of interest to the CIA, but still, I would love to use the apparatus and means of communication in Russia.

Sometimes I am simply amazed at the naivete of some. It turns out that a small CIA officer knew everything. And the rest of the world's special services slept deeply. Open your eyes wider. Snowden says what everyone has known for a long time without exception. Any self-respecting head of the country's intelligence would resign if I don’t know this.

It’s in vain that all foreign equipment has closed protocols for the exchange of information is no secret. Very smart move. Its inappropriateness is what to replace? If you take the connection, there’s also something to change, multicomovsky, Minikomovskaya, granite stations ..... I personally installed the Multicom MXM500, what can I say in appearance ... well, they don’t know how to put our products on, and they have been working stably for 2 years now. With regard to network technology, especially if it is IP telephony, the situation is worse, there is not enough equipment here ... software PBXs are mainly assembled on the basis of Asterisk open source software.

Briefly: changing what we have is not in such an assortment and not so beautiful, but you only need desire ..... and you yourself know the connection ... you cannot give the Enemy to the mercy
