"The regulation requires all ISPs to install a little "black box" rerouting
device, and to build a high-speed communications line, which would hot-wire
the provider -- and necessarily, all Internet users -- to FSB headquarters."
"With SORM-2, Russia is going farther than any other democratic country in
controlling the design of private-sector communications systems for
surveillance purposes."
