After a big story with the threat of blocking Wikipedia same concerns arose in relation to the social network Facebook. All the fuss began because of the law on personal data storage Russians only on servers located in the territory of our country, reports Lenta.ru.

The rumors emerged after a meeting of the head of Roskomnadzor Alexander Zharov c president Facebook is public policy in the Nordic countries and Central and Eastern Europe and Russia Tomasomom Mirupom Christensen. Media reported that on Facebook Russians refused to store data within the country.

The fact that Facebook is stubborn, without haste to solve the problem of data storage Russians in the country, experts explain the reluctance of companies to bear the additional costs. Marketing Director Solar Security Valentin Krokhin explains that Facebook stores the data is not on a regional basis, and by type, for example, separate comments separately “Laika».

If the social network still block, the access to the resource is restored. Then Russia can repeat the path of China, which declined to Facebook in 2009, and we have to settle for “VKontakte” and “Classmates».

In the Russian parliament demanded an end to speculation on the issue of placing the social network Facebook personal data in Russia. Committee on Information Policy advised to wait for the official position of the company on this issue and reminded that it is the responsibility of Roskomnadzor.

Deputy Leonid Levin, who heads the Duma Committee on Information Policy has urged not to speculate on the question of placing the Facebook data to servers Russia, as requested by the social network a new law on personal data. The MP noted that in case of hypothetical crimes lock resource can be carried out only by court order. “It is impossible to comment on the relationship between companies and institutions in the absence of the position of the company. Let’s wait for the official Facebook application or performance of their leadership on this issue, then we have to say “- he called.

However, there are any signs of default of the law, can only Roskomnadzor, said Levin. “To this end, the agency shall conduct a formal review and come to a conclusion as to whether the data collected by Facebook, personal data,” – he said.

According to Levin, if Roskomnadzor the check comes to the conclusion that the law broken and necessary sanctions against the company, then it will go to court. That will determine the severity of violations and penalties and punishment, reports Tass. “In any case, lock, if it is necessary according to the law, will be carried out only by court order. I repeat: while any speculation on this subject do not make sense. No official position of the company, there are no official events on the procedure for supervision “, – concluded Levin.
