Russia: Putin orders apparent new system for banning internet content
MOSCOW, Jan 29 (Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin has ordered his administration to consider an apparent new system to ban "toxic" internet content, although details were not released.
The new system, contained in a list of presidential orders on the Kremlin website, was described as a "self-regulated register of toxic content" which would be used "to protect minors". The Kremlin would review it by June 1.
The order, with Thursday's date, was first reported by Russian media on Saturday.
