Russian Court Fines Google $2.5 Decillion, More Money Than in the Entire World
Russian Court Fines Google $2.5 Decillion, More Money Than in the Entire World0A Russian court has levied an extraordinary $2.5 decillion fine against Google, exceeding the global GDP, for blocking Kremlin-affiliated accounts on its platforms. The astronomical fine, reported by state-run news outlet RBC, resulted from escalating penalties initially imposed in 2020 when media outlets Tsargrad TV and RIA FAN sued Google over restrictions on their YouTube channels.

The fines have continued to double weekly under Russian law, leading to the current sum of $2.5 decillion. Google¡¯s recent restrictions on Russian accounts, such as banning new accounts in August and deactivating AdSense accounts in the country, are part of broader sanctions implemented following Russia¡¯s invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

The legal challenges forced the U.S. tech giant¡¯s Russian subsidiary to file for bankruptcy in Russia two years ago and be officially declared bankrupt last year. However, its free services, including YouTube and Search, remain accessible in Russia.
