 As from 2021, when providing communication services for data transmission and access to the Internet, operators are obliged to provide free access to websites, information systems and computer programs included in the list of domestic socially significant information resources (in particular, to the websites of state agencies). The list of such sites is established by the Government of the Russian Federation. As from 2019, in the event of threats to the stability, security and integrity of the functioning of the Internet in the territory of the Russian Federation, state authorities may activate centralized communications network and mandate telecommunication message routing rules for relevant operators. Also, a search engine operator whose Internet advertising is aimed at consumers located in the RF, when displaying search results at the request of search engine users, at the request of a citizen (individual) is obliged to stop providing links to internet site’s page index, which allows access to information about this individual distributed in violation of the laws of the RF, which is unreliable, as well as irrelevant, having lost its value. Also, provider of services of reception, transmission, delivery and (or) processing of electronic messages of Internet users must store on the territory of the RF text messages, voice information, images, sounds, video, other electronic messages of Internet users up to six months from the respective date. Upon demand of state authorities such provider must limit the ability of a user to use the instant messaging service. As from 2017, in case of non-compliance with the above requirements the electronic messages system could be blocked by court order until the violation is rectified
