Artificial intelligence spy capabilities have alarmed Putin: after the assassination of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in Tehran, Moscow turned off surveillance cameras. The system protecting the dictator and his inner circle was only turned back on after engineers thoroughly inspected it and attempted to isolate it from the internet. This system operates independently from the nearly 300,000 cameras that monitor Moscow’s residents.

FSB Director Alexander Bortnikov stated that Russia’s vast surveillance apparatus has itself become a source of threat. The tools of an authoritarian regime, created to monitor its own citizens, have turned into a vulnerability that adversaries can now exploit.
This report highlights the growing paranoia within the Kremlin. Even advanced surveillance systems, originally built to control the population, are now viewed as potential liabilities due to fears of AI-driven hacking or foreign infiltration. The incident reflects the deep insecurity of the Russian leadership amid escalating regional conflicts.

And western countries are rapidly following suit with the mass surveillance! IMO

A group of European ministers issued a joint statement calling for coordinated EU action to restrict Russian tourist and other non-essential travel into Schengen. The statement says uneven national implementation weakens EU foreign policy and sanctions coherence, and frames Russian travel access as a security risk, including the movement of current or former Russian combatants inside Schengen.

The ministers are calling on the European Commission to prepare further Visa Code measures, improve visa issuance monitoring, and work with EU agencies to identify combatants and block entry.
