Deputy: Com ministry to allow Crimeans to use some anonymizers

SIMFEROPOL, Sep 12 (PRIME) -- Russia’s Communications and Mass Media Ministry has agreed to allow Crimeans to use a number of anonymizers despite the total ban, Dmitry Belik, a deputy for Sevastopol at the State Duma, the parliament’s lower house, said on Tuesday.

The deputy asked the ministry and the communications watchdog to stipulate some easing for Crimea and the city of Sevastopol in the law, in effect from November 1, forbidding anonymizers that provide access to blocked Web sites.

“It goes without saying that state authorities should show some delicacy toward people of the peninsula, because Crimeans are not only in the economic blockade, but are also limited in everything related to foreign Web sites, including online stores, jobs in IT, clearing companies. The peninsular is still isolated, and Crimeans are forced to use anonymizers to tackle household and employment problems,” Belik said.

The ministry agreed to keep several servers anonymizers for Crimeans, he said.
