Big Brother in Russia is Waking Up!
Are you ready for a new era of surveillance? Vladimir Putin has just signed a law introducing a digital profile for all foreign citizens entering, staying, or leaving Russia. Yes, you read that right – Russia is now digitally tracking every step you take, not just entry and exit, but also your stay on its territory.
What is the Digital Profile of a Foreign Citizen?
This new state registry collects all possible information about foreigners. The goal? “Collecting more complete, accurate, and up-to-date information” on the migration situation in the country. But let’s be honest – this is just another tool for control and surveillance, serving “state security and public order.”
Who is behind the implementation?
The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation is responsible for creating and implementing this system, with a deadline of June 30 this year. So, this is not some distant future plan, but a current and urgent matter.
Why is this a problem?
Imagine every move you make, every entry and exit from the country, and even your stay, being digitally recorded and accessible to authorities. This is not just an invasion of privacy but a potential tool for repression and control. In a country where freedom of speech and criticism of the government are already on thin ice, such laws only further suffocate freedom and create an atmosphere of fear.
What do sources say?
RIA Novosti reports that the goal of this registry is to improve state migration policy and ensure security. But is that really the goal, or just an excuse for even greater surveillance? Given the Kremlin’s past practices, doubts are more than justified.
What’s next?
If you are a foreigner planning to visit or stay in Russia, get ready to be under the watchful eye of the digital Big Brother. And for those wondering – is this just the beginning? With such laws, privacy boundaries are erased, and control becomes total.
Conclusion
Putin has once again shown that control over the population and foreigners is his number one priority. The digital profile of a foreign citizen is not just a law – it’s a sign that Russia is ready to take surveillance and control a step further. Will we allow such things to happen without questions? Or will we laugh, comment, and maybe even joke about the digital Big Brother? The choice is yours.
