"The next challenge is deepfakes - fake videos," she said. "We need to pay attention to legislative regulation in Russia. For example, jordan cell phone number list in China, all deepfakes are required to be labeled, and in Japan, they conduct a deep analysis of video content. We must think about regulating deepfakes in Russia: how to label them, who will be the controlling body, how to identify them. We also need to work with the population."
Information Technology and Communications, deputy from the United Russia party Alexander Khinshtein reported that the Committee on Information Policy is already preparing the corresponding legislative initiatives. "It is important for us to describe this phenomenon and clearly regulate the measures that those who disseminate such information will have to take. The set of mechanisms that we have is more than sufficient to contain information wars and counter them. But we are faced with a systemic failure to comply with Russian legislation. Despite the instructions of Roskomnadzor and the possibility of partially blocking Internet resources and slowing down traffic, some of the world's IT giants continue to ignore Russian legislation and actually provoke the state to make obviously unpopular and tough decisions. This is a constant test of our strength. Every day, new threats and phenomena appear that we have to deal with - for example, with deepfakes. For most people, the appearance of an image of a person speaking with a familiar voice does not raise any doubts - the existence of deepfakes in this regard poses a threat," he explained.
