Cut off contact with the civilized world: Russians want to ban calls from abroad

The occupying power interprets this as “protection against foreign swindlers”.

Russia invented new restrictions and can now block calls from abroad. They believe that such measures should protect Russians from foreign fraudsters, in particular from Ukraine, reports one of the militant sites. 

As is known, Roskomnadzor is considering such an opportunity to “protect subscribers from foreign fraudsters, as there is currently a multiple increase in phishing calls, in particular from Ukraine.” However, they will still be allowed to contact the civilized world, because when such blocking is implemented, Russians will be given a choice: to accept or not to accept foreign calls, to limit themselves from all calls from other countries or to communicate with subscribers who live abroad, from your contact list. 

Such a decision immediately caused dissatisfaction and many “experts” were indignant about it, because “blocking spam calls from abroad can create difficulties for businesses that work with organizations from the CIS countries, Asia and Africa.” And it will also cause difficulties with registration in foreign services and applications, such as Telegram.

Information analysts of the occupying country claim that due to such innovations, problems are possible for organizations that have infrastructure outside the Russian Federation, so this requires a large number of qualified personnel, which are not available. 

Other strange news of “Russian world”

As UNIAN wrote, in Moscow, two nurses wrote “GUR” on the monument to Zhukov . Both women were immediately detained, but their relatives claim that they were led by fraudsters, because the women themselves “would never have decided to do such an act.” 

In addition, UNIAN reported that  the FSB killed a Russian soldier because it considered him an accomplice of the Islamic State. The security forces allegedly received secret information from somewhere that the man was planning a terrorist attack against them and were forced to detain him.
