Russian court fines Google $20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

Google fined for failing to remove banned content

Russian court fines Google a record-breaking $20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 for failing to remove banned content from its search results.

The fine is the largest ever imposed on a technology company in Russia and comes after years of wrangling between Google and the Russian government over the removal of content that the government deems to be illegal or harmful.

In a statement, Google said that it was "disappointed" with the court's decision and that it would appeal the fine. The company said that it had "always complied with Russian law" and that it had "removed content that was found to be illegal or harmful."

The Russian government has been cracking down on technology companies in recent years, and Google has been a particular target. In 2021, the Russian government fined Google $7.2 million for failing to remove banned content and has also threatened to ban Google from Russia altogether.

The fine is a major blow to Google's business in Russia and could have a significant impact on the company's global operations. Google is one of the most popular search engines in the world and the fine could discourage users from using Google's services.
