This only concerns state-funded internet access terminals, like computers in libraries (or, in case of Russia, post offices), not your typical Wi-Fi hotspots.
- Grue3 12y agoWrong. Under this law, every internet provider must be able to provide a list of users using its service. Which automatically rules out any unrestricted public wifi.
- raquo 12y agoAny new law in Russia goes through mandatory interpretation dance in the media, because the wording is often so convoluted. And regardless of the actual wording, whether this law applies to all public wifi networks, or just some subset of them will be determined by an "explanatory notice" of the agency that will be enforcing the law. I highly doubt that you will actually need a passport or drivers license on you to access any public wifi. Most likely they'll settle for requiring phone number verification in most cases.
