The WhatsApp messenger has been threatened with blocking in the Russian Federation in 2025 if its management does not comply with local laws. In particular, the issue concerns the storage of information about user correspondence and its provision at the request of the FSB. Senator Artem Sheikin told RIA Novosti about this.
According to him, at the moment the service has “no contact” with Russian law enforcement agencies and the authorities are waiting for changes from it.
The senator noted that if WhatsApp complies with the requirements of Roskomnadzor, then nothing will change for users. Earlier, WhatsApp was forcibly added to the register of organizers of information dissemination.
The issue of blocking is within the competence of Roskomnadzor and is not currently being discussed, the State Duma clarified.#BtcNewHolder
