This might be a stupid question but I had to ask.

- This certificates has to be accepted by browsers which most developed by western companies (Like emphasized on the article). So you have to manually add TLS certificate to these browsers. (Which does not sound safe since these service will own by Russian Government)

- Even if they find a solution for this problem. There are many sanction on SWIFT, which will not allow users of this sites to have a purchase.

So is this service is only for their own citizens? If so, why not they just ban other browsers? (We all know how authoritarian and crazy the regime over there. They can kinda do that?)

This national TLC certificate authority not sound so smart. It's like having your own Credit Rating Agency which no body gives a shit about.

Am I missing something?
