American neural networks are seriously tightening the screws on users from Russia. According to RIA Novosti, citing the lead developer of MWS AI (MTS Web Services), Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google are intensifying their hunt for bypassers of blockades, and the next step may be verification by passport or another document.
Algorithms search for digital traces of real location. Computer time zone, frequent logins from different countries in a short time, known VPN addresses and proxies – all these are signals for account blocking. Developers and users play cat and mouse: loopholes are found and immediately closed. Mass account creation and attempts to bypass security filters also fall under suspicion.
It's one thing to lose access to a neural network, another to face a demand to upload a passport scan. This is no longer just a technical ban, but a full-fledged barrier, cutting off anonymous users. The expert advises not to tie oneself to one platform and to be prepared for the account to be blocked at any moment.
