The operators sell your personal information to third parties

Russian mobile operators accused of selling personal data of its subscribers to complete strangers. This was announced by representatives of Roskomnadzor after appropriate investigation.

According to the materials of the case, the number of operators, including MGTS, has sold the IP addresses of the subscribers, history of web surfing and some other sort of personal data. The fine amounted to a penny 30 000 rubles, but it is clear that the profit of MGTS from such fraud is clearly ten times higher. What other operators sell information about us, Roskomnadzor not yet reported, but it is believed that these are almost all companies working in this field. Why is it necessary? As usual — all a question of money, because they are a little high tariffs for connection, they want to enrich themselves at the Russians to the maximum.

As a result, the subscriber is then shown personalized advertising, and in some cases even come SMS advertising. But users can perfectly show the middle finger savvy operators and install it on your computer if not Tor, then at least blocker, which, incidentally, will not require money for the use. Note that selling your search history or web surfing Russian law is not regulated, so you’ll have to fight the urge of Opsosov to be welded on we the above methods.
