Dear Ladies and Gentlemen!
In the last months of 2022, a number of new laws were adopted and came into force. The laws entail a need to revise the approaches of online platforms to content moderation and launching media campaigns in Russia.
These novelties of legal regulation include:
- Introduction of prohibition of LGBT propaganda;
- Tightening state control over the activities of foreign agents;
- Changing the rules for registration of domain names in the zone .RU, .RF;
- New procedure for restricting access to messengers and social networks upon a court decision.
In this regard, we present you with an overview of the key changes that online platforms need to take into account when carrying out business activity in Russia. Follow the link to learn more.
