Lists include: which sites will be available to Novosibirsk under Internet restrictions

The “White List” is a list of Russian Internet resources, access to which is preserved under the restrictions of the mobile Internet. Its mission is to ensure the most important digital services work so that users can receive government services, use banking applications, order goods and plan trips even when access to other sites is interrupted.

The list includes government information systems, financial platforms, delivery services, medical services, educational resources and popular Internet sites. At the same time, the inclusion of a site in the list does not mean that it will be available under any circumstances: much depends on the nature of the restrictions and the technical operation of the network.

Who makes the white list and how it works

For the formation and updating of the list is the Ministry of digital resources of Russia. The Agency takes into account the proposals of state bodies and representatives of the industry, determining the resources that should remain available under the restrictions of mobile Internet.

There are now more than 120 resources on the list and it continues to be updated as needed.

After receiving the list, telecom operators configure their networks to provide access to these resources. Subscribers do not need to install additional applications or change the settings of the smartphone: the connection occurs automatically if the network and technical conditions allow you to transfer data.

However, having a site on the list does not guarantee that all of its features will work without restrictions. For example, individual pages or embedded third-party services may not be available.

Why websites on the list sometimes don’t open

Even listed resources can work intermittently. Problems arise due to technical errors in the setting of access. If the request is sent to an IP address that is not included in the relevant settings, the page may not load.

The quality of the system is also affected by the experience of operators. In regions where mobile Internet restrictions have been repeatedly imposed, technicians can quickly identify and resolve such problems.

If the site, which should remain accessible, does not open, subscribers are advised to inform their operator. This will help specialists check the settings and find out the cause of the failure.

The list of resources and access conditions may change. Therefore, before using a specific site, it is worth checking with the current information of the Ministry of Digital Services and its communications operator.
