"Caution, News": the State Housing Inspection demanded to transfer house chats to Max messenger

The State Housing Inspectorate began to send notifications to the heads of managing organizations in the Russian regions, in which she demands to transfer house chats to Max messenger. It is reported "Caution, News" with reference to the relevant documents.

In particular, such notifications have already received in six regions: in the Moscow, Tula, Nizhny Novgorod and Belgorod regions, as well as to the Krasnodar Territory and Bashkortostan.

“We inform you about the MAX messenger, developed for safe communication and providing access to convenient digital services from the state and business. The entire infrastructure of the MAX platform is located in Russia, which provides reliable data protection and user confidentiality, ”the letter says.

The document, which was sent to Bashkortostan, says that house chats must be transferred to Max until August 25.

On July 15, the Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Mikhail Mishustin signed an order by which Max became the national messenger. The “daughter” of VK “communication platform” is responsible for its development. As planned by the authorities, the messenger should combine the “functionality of domestic digital services” - state, financial, and commercial. How can this be realized in practice is still incomprehensible.
