The company plans to replace it with a domestic one from the NTC (National Certification Center of the Ministry of Digital Development).

Users have a choice. The first is to install the certificate yourself. It can be downloaded from the Gosuslugi portal (https://www.gosuslugi.ru/crt). The second is to use Russian browsers: Yandex.Browser or Atom from VK. The relevant certificates are already there. Stores have already begun to warn customers about possible problems with payments.

However, while the villagers, under the leadership of another Luddite, do not begin to bring down those very towers, few people notice their activity.

Among this diversity, I would especially like to note the joint project with the Youth Editorial Board of the Central Television - "Musical Elevator". The program at one time made a lot of noise by the very fact of its existence and, first of all, thanks to the energy of its presenters (Andrey Komarov and Dmitry Mamatov), who, despite the changes taking place in society, had to literally push everything more or less advanced, and because it seemed unusual.

(Vladimir, Rybinsk, Yaroslavskaya oblast, Russia) * Belarus. ------------- Belarusian TV and radio of the past. We recently discovered a curious group dedicated to Belarusian television in the Russian social network VK. The group is called "Old Belarusian Television and Radio". The group's description reads: "everything connected with Belarusian TV and radio from 1956 to 2011." It must be said that if a number of resources and channels are devoted to the TV of the USSR and Russian television of past years on the Internet (on which audio and video recordings of the past are periodically posted), then this cannot be said about Belarusian TV and radio. Which, of course, is connected with the peculiarities of the development of Belarusian television and radio broadcasting ... But back to the group "Old Belarusian Television and Radio" (https://vk.com/staroebt).
