Advisor to the President of the Russian Federation on the Internet: the law on news aggregators may be adopted, but Yandex.News will not be affected
German Klimenko, adviser to the President of the Russian Federation on the Internet, promises to prevent the closure of news services like Yandex and Google. It is about the possibility of adopting a law on news aggregators and its consequences, writes "Russian news service."
“We will achieve that“ Yandex.News ”will not suffer. Everything will be gorgeous, everything will be fine, ”Klimenko said. According to him, after the adoption of the relevant law, nothing terrible will happen, as it did not happen after the adoption of the law on bloggers. Klimenko believes that this law did not lead to the closure of blogs, but allowed to turn them into modified media. Approximately the same, says the adviser, expects news aggregators.
“Not one hundred percent media with all obligations. The same bloggers are not exactly mass media, but there is a law about them. Guinea pig - not sea and not pig. And we will have media here, but not quite. The blogger distributes the content, but the media is not, they do not have all the rights of the media. There is a law, but not a single blogger has yet been hurt, ”Klimenko said.
Let me remind you that last Thursday, February 25, a bill was introduced in the State Duma, where it is proposed to equate news aggregators with attendance of more than 1 million people per day. In addition, the authors of the bill propose to limit the share of foreign capital, wrote Megamozg. The bill also proposes to oblige news aggregators to check the disseminated information.

The company “Yandex” previously called the requirements of the bill “impossible”, saying that if the bill is passed, the Yandex.News service may have to be closed.
