Russian Deputy Proposes Internet Access White List

A recent legislative initiative in Russia proposes providing free school uniforms to children from large families. The proposal follows discussions regarding the redistribution of prices for essential versus luxury goods. This initiative aims to support families with multiple children through state-provided resources. The specific implementation timeline for the uniform program was not detailed in the report. Dmitry Gusev, a deputy from the Just Russia party, has proposed creating a 'white list' of verified Russian users. This list would consist of individuals whose phone numbers are linked to confirmed accounts on the Gosuslugi state services portal. The proposal aims to ensure these users do not face mobile internet disconnections. This comes amid a legislative push in the State Duma to guarantee digital rights, including internet access and anonymity.
