On the Issue of Countering Extremism on the Internet
( Pp. 182-186)

One of the main mass media source is the Internet. This is an effective method of influencing the consciousness of the broad masses of citizens, in particular young people, on whom antisocial and asocial values are imposed with the help of information technologies in order to recruit them into terrorist and extremist groups. One of the highest priority tasks of the law enforcement agencies of the Russian Federation is the fight against extremism, in particular on the Internet, due to the expansion of the boundaries of the activities of extremist groups, the localization of which was cities or districts. Over the past two decades, extremist activity has become high-profile in media, which means that extremists can enter into discussions, propagate their ideological views in various Internet resources, thereby gaining the opportunity to reach tens, hundreds, thousands of people. An impressive part of the committed extremist crimes, as practice shows, falls on crimes using the Internet. Amendments to Russian legislation enable Roskomnadzor (Federal Service for Supervision in the Sphere of Mass Communications) to restrict access to visiting extremist web-sites when they are detected and send information to the country's Prosecutor General's Office for further investigation, involving extremism counteraction units. The antiterrorist package of laws adopted in 2014 can be considered the next important step aimed at countering extremism in the country, one of the points of which is the registration with Roskomnadzor of site owners with an audience of more than two thousand users per day.
