Abstract. The author raises the issue of the formation in the practice of the national regulator of the protection of the rights of users of Internet platforms in terms of illegal blocking and censorship restrictions, contrary to the fundamental principles and guarantees of freedom of collection, Receiving and disseminating information and the right to freedom of expression in a democratic society. The author notes that, at present, the relevant practice has not been generalized, nor has it evolved logically in the form of amendments and additions to legislative and secondary legislation. At the same time, the author concludes that the relevant user rights continue to be massively violated despite the imposition of large fines by both Russian courts and State authorities. In the author’s view there is insufficient protection of user’s rights and redress.
