The Federal Security Service published a list of 60 non-classified topics on a government website late on Thursday, many of them related to the military, that it said could be used by foreign governments against Russia's security. The list includes topics like military procurement, troop morale, the whereabouts of soldiers, troop numbers, their personal data and problems hindering the development of Russia's space agency, Roscosmos. Both Russians and non-Russians can be labelled as foreign agents under the legislation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDE Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 It's interesting how this foul document uses two different types of caveats: the part catering to the Ministry of Defense occasionally makes exceptions for information from open sources. The Roscosmos half, meanwhile, makes exceptions for "programs with a scientific or socioeconomic focus". So you can't even share a TASS article on military soace matters, it seems. The last reprieve is that it's a subordinate document to Article 2.1 of 272-FZ. So to earn the designation one also needs to get "supporting influence" from foreign states, similar to "political" foreign agents. Please do not like my posts from now on, I guess.

JoeSchmuckatelli Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Sadly the onus is on people subject to the law to protect themselves. I would respectfully suggest that those affected know far more about their environment than those of us who don't live in those places - and perhaps we should just do nothing and let them participate as they will. We certainly don't want the good people of Germany coming to the US and trying to protect us from our highway speed limits. ... Or do we?

Vanamonde Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 We are running into the problem that while national policies may be relevant, history has shown that they cannot be discussed politely. Please stay away from that side of things. Yes, even though it's relevant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please stay away from that side of things. Yes, even though it's relevant. The way I understood @AtomicTech's question was more along the lines of "what do we do if relevant news are impacted by the policies?", not the other way 'round. Say for instance that the test flight of the Orel spacecraft is postponed. Would it get anybody in trouble if we had a discussion about why?

Vanamonde Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 That would depend on the reason for the postponement. And yes, we feel silly splitting hairs like that, but the alternative is trying to referee the vitriolic arguments and feuds which arise if we don't.
