  Might as well merge them all and call FSBank, for they will be sure as hell MITMing all the communication between clients and backends.

    Nope, MitMing will be done by the SORM system [0] using certificates signed by the Ministry of Digital "Development" which will be trusted the Yandex Browser, which will be widely installed out of necessity by ordinary Russians to access banks and subsequently other Web resources.

    Surely this will improve user security and trust in the existing Web PKI system in non-Western countries. /s
