I have been trying not to write about legislation lately, as it is neither very interesting nor effective. But there are exceptions. Such was the 250th Decree, and such is the bill on turnover fines, which two senators and one deputy sent to the Government yesterday. Many media outlets, it seems to me, have drawn some incorrect conclusions from this, and I wanted to reflect on this topic a little.
What are the main messages I read in different publications:
This is the finished content writing service version and the bill will be sent to the State Duma,
the bill does not provide for criminal punishment,
Previously proposed versions of the bill were rejected.
Let's go in order. Let's start with the fact that what was sent to the Government requires its approval, and among those who will have to put their "signature" under the document is the Ministry of Digital Development, which opposes the bill of Turchak-Rukavishnikova-Khinshtein. They had other, more sensible, but more difficult to implement approaches to regulating this topic, but they have not yet been listened to. I admit that some conciliation commission will be convened from deputies, senators, experts and the Ministry of Digital Development, and in the end a slightly different text will be sent to the State Duma, which would suit all parties.
There is a possibility that, given the situation with the arrested Deputy Minister Parshin, the Ministry of Digital Development will not enter into a “conflict” with parliamentarians, so as not to attract unnecessary attention to itself, but who knows... There is also a question of principle here.
At the same time, yesterday ROCIT suddenly and unexpectedly spoke out , stating that they, “ as the oldest RuNet organization, standing guard over the rights and legitimate interests of citizens in the digital environment, consistently advocate for the introduction of a fairly strict regime for the processing of personal data .” And ROCIT insists that “ compensation for users affected by the leak must be made regardless of whether a fine is paid .”
Do you even remember what ROCIT is? They made their statement above in a Telegram channel that was created... yesterday! The "oldest" organization dealing with the Internet did not have a representative office in one of the most popular messengers/social networks in Russia until yesterday.
And the opinion of ROCIT could be ignored if the personality of the Chairman of the Board of ROCIT, who is... deputy Gorelkin, who is with deputy Khinshtein in the same State Duma committee on information policy and in the same political party. And deputy Gorelkin believes that compensation for damage to personal data subjects should be provided in any case. And since the text of the bill sent does not say a word about compensation, I admit that this norm will have to appear one way or another either on the way from the Government to the State Duma, or between the first and second readings, as often happens.
