Russia is demanding that Google impose censorship on YouTube
Russia demands that Google introduce censorship on the video hosting site YouTube. The Kremlin regime claims that the video hosting service should stop broadcasting videos with threats against Russians.
Roskomnadzor accused the video platform of “engaging in terrorism.” The agency was outraged, as indicated in its appeal, by videos calling for distroyed the railway tracks of Russia and Belarus, which are allegedly broadcast by the video hosting service as advertising. We are talking, most likely, about the video appeal of the adviser to the head of the Presidential Office Alexey Arestovich, who called on the Ukrainians to arrange an “all-out rail war”for the invaders.
“There is Crimea, and there is an enemy who went from Crimea to Melitopol and presses Mariupol from the West, transferring troops there by rail. Now the question is: Would we like to arrange a rail war for the enemy in the South?“- the adviser to the head of the OP asked the Ukrainians.
According to Roskomnadzor, the broadcast of Arestovich’s appeal “clearly demonstrates the anti-Russian position of the American company Google LLC.” In addition, his speeches “are of a terrorist nature and threaten the life and health of Russians.” The agency says that in case of non-compliance with the requirements, the YouTube video hosting service will be blocked on the territory of Russia.
