Recently, Russia passed a new law.
If people search for 'extreme content' online, they may be fined.
The fine is about three thousand to five thousand rubles.
Using a VPN to go online, if used for illegal activities, will result in heavier penalties.
A VPN is a tool that helps people access blocked websites.
The new law also states that people who promote or advertise tools like VPNs will be fined.
What is 'extreme content'?
The law says this includes encouraging violence, terrorist activities, or using symbols of banned organizations.
Currently, many websites in Russia are considered 'extreme content'.
Some people worry that such laws might make people afraid to read news or search for information online.
