The FSB and Roskomnadzor spy on regime dissenters, regime evaders, and anti-war activists. Kremlin agents have not limited themselves to surveillance and phone tapping. They harass dissidents, hack their social networks and emails, and collect personal information and use it in court.

How the Kremlin’s surveillance systems work and whether there are ways to hide from it - find out in a special report by Ksenia Barvinenko.
