Blog of the Department of Information Technology of the city of Moscow on "Habrahabr"

Hi, Habr! Finally, we, as part of a large and not very agile mechanism, have reached the point of starting a blog here.

In general, we thought about this for a long time and looked closely at your discussions, but the decisive event was the publication about “unauthorized” access to thousands of Moscow cameras, we realized that it’s better not to pull this off and engage in dialogue. One can argue about the legitimacy of the method of obtaining information from the cameras, however, as we have already written , the opening of access to the cameras was in our plans.


Once talking, it is difficult to stop. Moreover, from the heated discussion, we realized that the residents of Habrakhabra are not indifferent to the life of the city, and that we, as an IT department, can and should interact with people who are closely connected with IT and are ready to help make our services better, at least at least, so that the city was not ashamed, but ideally - so that it was something to be proud of and something to show off to foreign friends.

Therefore, in the very near future, we will launch a joint special project with Habrahabrom, where we can test, and maybe try to break, access to 130 thousand city cameras through our new service video.mos.ru (it has not been launched yet). In the meantime, you can leave your mail here to get an invitation to be among the first. Invites quite a bit.

To make this blog interesting, we really need feedback from you - which topics you are interested in discussing with us and which services or technologies you want to know more, we will try to respond promptly to all and respond to constructive criticism.

Thank you for your attention, we are waiting in the comments!
