According to the document, owners of telecom operators who are unable to organize uninterrupted power supply for the stable functioning of the network will face a fine: for citizens - from 3,000 to 5,000 rubles, for officials - from 5,000 to 10 thousand rubles, for individual entrepreneurs - from 10 thousand to 20 thousand rubles, for legal entities - from 30 thousand to 50 thousand rubles.
s are aimed at implementing the canada cell phone number list provisions of the law on ensuring the stable, secure and integrated functioning of the Internet on the territory of Russia.
In addition, according to the law that came into force, warranty and technical support, as well as modernization of the used communication means, must be carried out by Russian legal entities that are not under the control of foreign companies. Owners of communication operators must exclude the possibility of disruption of the operability of the used communication means by attacks on the infrastructure.
Director of the non-profit organization "Association of Telephone Operators" Sergey Efimov believes that there are signs that the developers of the regulatory legal act set their own tasks, and the operators and persons equivalent to them would like to see a different formulation and results. " As a result, the intentions are hidden under the unclear text of the law, which means that it is the government that benefits from the law , " he says. In his opinion, the innovation will bring more minuses. " The most important thing is that the document does not show decisions that the affected persons will actually be able to receive compensation , " he noted.
The Tele2 press service reported that the company strictly follows the requirements of Russian legislation and the implementation of this regulation is no exception. " It involves ensuring uninterrupted power supply and the use of communication facilities that meet information security requirements. The requirements prohibit warranty technical support and modernization of communication facilities by foreign companies, unauthorized remote updating or management of them from the territory of a foreign state, unauthorized transfer of information about the infrastructure. This is not about the stability of the mobile Internet from the point of view of customer experience, but about the requirements for the infrastructure of operators in the context of information security, first of all , " the Tele2 press service explained .
The press service of PJSC Rostelecom noted that Rostelecom is a law-abiding company with significant state participation, complying with all requirements of current legislation.
Independent expert Vadim Plesskiy notes that this law regulates issues of ensuring stable, safe and complete functioning of the Internet and public communication networks on the territory of the Russian Federation. " The regulation of operators' activities and the focus on the security of network operation are not something new or unique. Until recently, some small communication operators ignored the requirements of the law. And there was no liability for this. Instead of ensuring regulatory measures, these operators preferred, for example, to change legal entities. For this, legal entities were registered in advance and the necessary licenses were obtained , " says Vadim Plesskiy. According to him, together with a significant increase in the cost of licenses for communication services, this law makes such a constant replacement of the legal entities of the communication operator unprofitable. " On the downside, compliance with legal requirements entails additional costs for operators. And given the difficulties in acquiring equipment that began in the spring of 2022, these costs have increased significantly. As a result of a stricter approach to regulation, the number of telecom operators in Russia may decrease, consolidation will occur, and at all levels - among both large and small operators. Prices for end consumers will increase, if not immediately, then after some time , " the expert concluded .
