Abstract: The article examines counter–sanction information - a new category or type of information for domestic information and legal regulation. The concept of "counter-sanction information" appeared in the legislation in connection with the increased sanctions pressure of foreign states on the Russian Federation at the beginning of 2022. Regulation of the procedure for the dissemination of such information is designed to reduce the risks of taking restrictive measures against Russian legal entities and individuals who are participants in foreign economic activity.
The author examines these norms on information, in particular the definition, analyzes the restrictions arising from the recognition of information as counter-sanctioned, the circumstances associated with the onset of legal liability.
In the course of the research, scientific methods were used: analysis, generalization, comparison, modeling. The use of the formal legal method and systematic interpretation allowed us to form an idea of the counter-sanction information. The problem under consideration has not been practically investigated in Russian science.
It is assumed that the legislator formulates a new special legal regime of information in the context of the development of counter-sanctions regulation, ensuring the protection of private and public interests. At the same time, the risks that have arisen in the activities of entities that freely disseminate information, including mass information, are analyzed.
As a result of the conducted research, the conclusion is formulated that under the conditions of sanctions, freedom of information is reduced, and the volume of information previously open and accessible to an unlimited number of people may gradually decrease due to the development of counter-sanctions regulation.
