Roskomnadzor has deployed a traffic‑filtering mechanism based on machine‑learning algorithms, spending 2.27 billion rubles on its development. The system is being integrated into the Automated System for Ensuring the Security of the Russian Internet segment (ASBI) and will supplement existing technical tools for countering threats.

According to the announcement, the new technology should improve detection of prohibited content and methods of bypassing blocks, though experts warn it may cause false positives and affect the stability of VPNs and corporate services.
