Kazakhstan Begins Intercepting HTTPS Internet Traffic Of All Citizens Forcefully

The Kazakhstan government has issued an advisory to all major local Internet Service Providers asking them to make it mandatory for all their customers to install government-issued root certificates on their devices. The advisory has been issued with respect to amendments to the Law on Communications 2004. The law was intended to come in force starting 1 January 2016, but the Kazakhstan government failed to force the local ISPs following a series of lawsuits. Now, Tele2, one of the major Kazakh ISPs, has finally started redirecting all HTTPS connections of its customers to a web page containing certificate files and instructions on how to install it.
