Russia Promotes State Super App For Surveillance
The Russian government is promoting internal domestic platforms, including a state-run super app, to monitor data for intelligence and repressive agencies. This move aims to restrict citizen access to uncontrolled foreign information sources. Experts suggest this follows models used in Iran to implement large-scale information flow restrictions. The strategy shifts from passive censorship to active user tracking and monitoring. The implementation follows similar models previously used in countries like Iran.
