Since Facebook and Twitter did not provide concrete responses for Russian communications watchdog Roskomnadzor's queries to specify the location of the databases that they used to store Russian users' personal data and request to localise users' personal data within the Russian territory, an administrative suit has been launched against both companies. The responses did not specify the implementation of the legislation.
