Russia’s communications watchdog accused YouTube of being “one of the key platforms for spreading fake photos of (Russia’s) special military operations on Ukrainian territory,” the report said. YouTube has globally banned Russian state media from using its platform.
Earlier, Russia’s communications regulator said on March 29 that it had drawn up two administrative cases against Google for failing to remove banned information from YouTube and blatantly promoting false content.
At that time, the Russian communications regulator said that Google repeatedly violated the rules and maybe fined 8 million rubles (about 615,200 yuan), or a fine equivalent to 20% of Google’s annual revenue in Russia.
