The following is a draft order from the Russian Ministry of Communications, written in coordination with the FSB, that will require Russian internet service providers to monitor all internet traffic and retain the information for 12 hours after the data is collected, including stored data, phone numbers, IP addresses, account names, social network activity and e-mail addresses. The proposed rule changes have concerned Russian telecommunications providers who say that the requirements violate the Russian constitution. This draft version of the order was released to the public in late October.
