June 22 (Reuters) - Russia's state communications regulator Roskomnadzor has added Amazon Web Services (AMZN.O) and 11 other foreign technology companies to a widened list of firms it wants to open local offices or face penalties and possible bans. Moscow's subsequent invasion of Ukraine intensified Russia's disputes with Big Tech, ultimately leading to Twitter, Facebook and others being banned from the market. But despite the initial threats, may other listed web services remain operational and available, such as YouTube, Wikipedia, Telegram and Zoom. Amazon Web Services and another 11 mostly hosting sites were added on Thursday, Roskomnadzor's website showed. It was not immediately clear what the listing would mean for Amazon and others.

Any articles, social media comments, or even websites where his name simply appeared in marginal links, were flagged by the agency, according to The Times. Roskomnadzor in conjunction with other facets of Russia's surveillance state also targeted anyone who supported Navalny, records show.
