Russia is seeking a staggering sum from Google over $2 billion trillion, or roughly 20 quintillion rubles, due to fines incurred by blocking pro-Russian channels on YouTube. The penalty amounts to around $20 billion trillion, dwarfing the global economy’s size of $110 trillion.
The Kremlin claims that Google’s actions restrict their broadcasters’ rights and have imposed mounting charges with penalties doubling every week. Google denies any material impact on earnings from “ongoing legal matters” in Russia.
