Official Notifications to be Emailed

Roskomnadzor, Russia’s agency for mass media supervision, announced that it will notify internet media of purportedly illegal reader comments on media sites by email rather than by ordinary mail. Under a recent interpretative decision by the Supreme Court, a registered “mass medium” (newspaper, etc.) is required to delete allegedly illegal reader comments from its site only upon receipt of a formal notification from Roskomnadzor. This marks the first time in Russia that email is being recognized as a potential means for the delivery of official correspondence.
