| Russia has laid the foundation of cyber world, 5 things everyone should know |
In the era where everyone is engaged in using the Internet more and more, in that period, Russia has decided to shut down the Internet in the entire country. At present, this decision has been taken temporarily, so that the cyber defense capability of the country can be assessed, but once closed, the internet will run again or not, it cannot be said. Russia is taking this important step to protect the Internet of its country from America. In fact, Russia is afraid that the United States may turn off Russia's Internet at any time, due to which the country will suffer a lot and in such a situation, Russia wants to be ready in advance. However, by doing so, Russia will isolate itself from the whole world.
According to the news published in Russia's news site R.B.C, Russia is making its own internet, which is being named as RuNet. For this, the bill has also been prepared, which has also passed in Parliament on Tuesday. That is, it will be implemented in the coming few months. In this way, the people of Russia will no longer be part of the global Internet. However, Russia has also found a way to stay connected with the world, but how effective it will be, nothing can be said.
1- What is RuNet Bill?
Under this bill, such a system is being started in Russia, which will allow internet to be used with complete independence only within the country. If any traffic will go out of Russia and want to connect to the World Wide Web, then it will have to pass through several exchange points. Russia's communication regulator Roskomnadzor will control these exchange points. Now a question definitely arises here, why is Russia so scared of America?
2- Why does Putin call the Internet 'CIA Project'?
If we talk about Russia's new bill, then it is clear that it is scared of America. Putin has even said that the Internet is a 'CIA project'. Let us tell you that the CIA is the investigating agency of America. Putin's mentor, German Klimenko, has also said last year that Western countries have captured the Internet in such a way that they can cut Russia from the global Internet with just one button. Now the question arises that why is Putin and his advisers so aggressive on America? Actually, America has put Russia in the list of source of hacking attack. That is, many hacking incidents in America happen from Russia. This is the reason why there are differences between the US and Russia regarding the Internet. Russia wants to create its own internet, which it can control in its own way. If seen, Russia wants to make the internet network like the Great Firewall of China in our country.
3- Network like 'Great Firewall of China
China has developed a strong system to control the use of the Internet, known as the 'Great Firewall of China'. In this, the government has put a variety of filters, with the help of which the Chinese authorities decide what the people of China can see on the Internet and what not. That is, the people of China see what China wants. A network is also being built in Russia on the lines of the way China has created the 'Great Firewall of China', through which people will be able to reach all the things inside Russia with freedom, but as soon as any traffic in Russia Will go out, it will start monitoring. It is possible that in order to use the Internet outside Russia, many types of filters also have to go through.
4- How much profit and loss to the government
This decision will greatly increase the financial burden on Russia's government. First of all, 134 billion rubles i.e. about 144 billion rupees will have to be paid to the telecom operators every year as compensation. Apart from this, it will cost an additional 25 billion rubles, about 27 billion rupees to make the register of the exchange. A senator Andrei Klishas says that the government has already made a provision of 20 billion rubles, or about 21 billion rupees, which will be used to protect Russia's internet from foreign attacks.
5- What will change with this decision?
After the implementation of this decision, the people of Russia will go away from the world in a way. Connecting to the global internet will be neither easy nor free. For the kind of arrangement Russia wants to make, it will have to inform the information of traffic in real time and all the schemes of all the operators to Russia's communications regulator, which is being told by the service provider as impossible from there, but Russia this time Is adamant Apart from this, Filip Kulin, an internet expert from Russia, says that if this is done then it will mean that Russia is already in a state of war with the whole world. Their reason is that we should think about how to grow potatoes in the event of nuclear war, and not how to run internet in case of nuclear war. Let us tell you that nuclear cold is a situation when after a nuclear war, the sun rays do not reach the ground due to the thick sheet of smoke.
In Russia, signs of internet shutdown were being received for quite some time. Putin calls the Internet a CIA project and his advisor says that Western countries will shut down Russia's Internet with one button, these are all indications. Anyway, the matter of creating duplicate network was raised in 2014 itself, which was repeated by Putin in 2017 and now by 2019, a bill has been made about it. However, the opposition says that in 2014 there was an exercise to shut down the Internet, but it could not be closed. Not only this, Russia also tried to block apps like Telegram, but failed. Even many Russian officials themselves started using Telegram through V.P.N, so as not to get caught.
