Russian regulator says it will fine Google over Ukraine war videos
Russia’s telecoms regulator Roskomnadzor has issued a warning to Google, threatening to fine the tech giant over content distributed on YouTube, claiming that YouTube promotes the spread of fake content that contains unreliable information about the course of Russia’s special military operation in Ukraine.
Roskomnadzor also stated that YouTube promotes ‘extremist’ content ‘with calls to carry out violent actions against Russian servicemen.’
