Russia Fines Google $20 Decillion, amount Surpasses World Money Supply.
A Russian court has fined tech-giant Google $20 decillion. According to a recent World Bank report, the mind-blowing fine amount, surpasses the collective money supply in the world.
Google caused offense to Russian media by blocking the accounts that belonged to multiple pro-Kremlin TV channels on YouTube.
The penalty amount that has brought global attention to the case reflects the symbolic statement of their frustration towards Western tech companies. This is also escalating the tension between the tech giant and Russia following the international sanction to limit the country’s political and economic influence.
