Lawyers and IT experts allow the introduction of fines for using VPNs and other services to bypass blocking.
Yuri Gizatullin, founder of the IT company TIQUM, said that Roskomnadzor has the means to use VPN for identification purposes. However, this is resource intensive and may raise user data privacy issues.
