O Vladimir Putin recently stated that the Internet is a "CIA project". Experts have warned for several months that NSA surveillance will lead to the disruption of the Internet.
Following the messages from Brazil and Germany, which essentially suggest the creation of local Internet networks to protect themselves from the spy-based actions of the United States, Russia is likely to be added to the list.
Vladimir Putin was very clear when he named the Internet a "CIA project."
The Russian president made this statement during a press conference in St. Petersburg. During his speech, he also said that the US intelligence service originally created the Internet and has since continued to develop it.
This is not the first time that Vladimir Putin has hinted that he would want Russia to have its own alternative network, separate from the global network.
Germany and Brazil, as we mentioned above, are two other countries that have similar plans, especially after the revelations of the National Security Agency's actions.
There are, of course, many who blame Snowden for the consequences of his revelations.
However, Snowden's supporters point out that there would be no risk of Internet disruption if the NSA had not spied on the world.
