The accounts of singer Yegor Creed and bloggers Yuri Khovansky, Nekoglai (Nikolai Lebedev) and others on the Twitch and Kick streaming platforms, as well as their Telegram channels, are included in the Register of Prohibited Information of Roskomnadzor (RKN), and access to them is blocked. On this subject reported Ekaterina Mizulina, head of the Safe Internet League.
She recalled that in February, the organization asked Roskomnadzor and the Federal Antimonopoly Service to verify the activities of streamers for the placement of advertisements and illegal lotteries in casinos. As a result of the audit, it was found that the account holders are indeed breaking the law.

RBC in reference to RKN clarifies that 15 documents on the organization of lotteries on the Twitch platform were included in the register of prohibited information.
“Roskomnadzor sent requests to the owner of the Internet service to remove prohibited material. The information was also forwarded to the commission of inquiry for consideration and adoption of the measures provided for by law,” the watchdog agency said in a statement.
Current Russian advertising legislation prohibits online casino advertising. For participation in such advertising, an administrative penalty is provided – a fine of up to 2.5 thousand rubles.
