Roskomndazor Office asks to defend against the attacks of Wikipedia. Spokesman Roskomnadzor Vadim Ampelonsky complained about the administration of Russian-speaking Wikipedia because of attempts to put pressure on the agency. His criticisms he voiced the newspaper “Izvestia”. He said that representatives of Roskomnadzor were unpleasantly surprised when the Executive Director of the NP “Wikimedia RU” Stanislav Kozlovsky, rather than to fix the article unfolded “large-scale information campaign».
Ampelonsky believes that the main the aim of the portal was to create the maximum emotional pressure on Roskomnadzor the public and the media. “Apparently, in the hope of thereby influence the decision of the supervisory authority,” – commented Ampelonsky. The representative of the supervisory authority said that Wikipedia has been excluded from the register of banned sites after of Federal Drug Control Service has come report confirming that the updated text of the article is not contrary to the law.
According to the official, the article edited, leading to a scientific mind and lock site was actually invisible to the majority of subscribers Russian Internet providers.
Recall that in Monday, August 24, Roskomnadzor, without waiting for the Federal Drug Control Service, sent a lock link on Narcotic Drugs charas, which was recognized by the court prohibited. But “Wikipedia” concessions did not go to the authorities. Remove article can only participants themselves “Wikipedia”, all the links in the article are made to the official sources, explained his position to “Vedomosti” executive director “Wikimedia” (Russian division Wikimedia Foundation, serving Wikipedia) Stanislav Kozlovsky.
The Definitive failure “Wikipedia” to delete the article came as a surprise to Roskomnadzor. Position administrator “Wikipedia” has caused “bewilderment” at the service, as they are “due to unknown reasons have decided to enter into conflict with the Russian justice” by putting a “kick interests of multiple users Russian version of the site».
The situation was resolved suddenly. Participants in the “Wikipedia” thought and suffered drug information charas to another URL, and the page that is registered in the court decision, put a list of all meanings of the word “charas” (earlier this list was not). After some hesitation (and even short-term lock resources of individual operators) Roskomnadzor was forced to admit that intended to lock page edited and therefore, the judgment is satisfied. The reference was deleted from the register of banned information.
I wonder how things will develop relations “Wikipedia” and Roskomnadzor. The threat of blocking online encyclopedia has caused a great stir in society. “Streisand Effect” also load: article you searched 20-30 people a day in the last week viewed tens of thousands of people daily. Kozlowski expects Roskomnadzor will continue and further to warn encyclopedia. If Roskomnadzor had serious intentions to lock a resource, it probably would have happened. But, apparently, the service felt that our society is not yet ready for such a degree of censorship. Perhaps the imperfection of the law in this case turned out to be beneficial to both parties.
