YouTube Video Hosting lost 1 billion rubles. from their accounts in Russia. The amount was written off forcibly in favor of the Tsargrad TV channel, the history of the claim of which can be entered into legal textbooks.

It all started with a long-line blocking of the channel of the channel on YouTube. After that, the television company submitted to the Russian court, won him, and Google lost all appeals, despite the arguments that the annual income of the channel from activity is only 36 million rubles, so compensation at 1 billion only from YouTube looked allegedly unreasonable.

The trial continued for quite a long time, but the process of penalties was unusual. The penalty was progressive, and after a year and a half after the award, according to some reports, it was supposed to be the amount of all world wealth.

The company's lawyers on their estimates noted that after 14 months by the formula of the fine, it will grow to the cost of all rubles in circulation, and then all the money in the world.

As a result, the fine has multiplied on tens of millions of rubles, after which for a while was limited to the top limit. The final amount was written off by Google's accounts in Russia, which the company could not convert and withdraw in their jurisdiction.

From the end of December 2021, the amount of the penalty is 100 thousand rubles. On the day should have increased twice the weekly. The limit amount of the penalty for the first 9 months, the court determined 1 billion rubles. The amount has accumulated much earlier - by mid-March 2022

On Google in Russia, several more fines per billion rubles were written. At the same time, the evaluation of the company's revenue in Russia is divided. Someone considers it in tens of billions of rubles, others - in much more modest amounts.

Whatever it was, now Google does not earn in Russia, turning off the reception and display of advertising in Russia. We are talking only about domestic Russian activity. The authors of the Russian channels still receive means of monetization for foreign advertisements.

"Tsargrad" promises to continue to achieve channel unlocking and even plans to recover from Google new amounts in Russia and abroad.

At the same time, although you get money from Google accounts in Russia - the case is simple, it is unlikely to bring the channel to unlock the channel. In addition, in the Agreement on the use of the YouTube platform, it is indicated that the author of the channel takes the opportunity to hold the owner of the hosting to stop its service in its service.

For video hosting, various issues of work efficiency in the Russian market appear. Payments to domestic authors for advertising If it is impossible to receive receipts from Russian advertisers, to bring these funds, under the threat of endless fines and the risk of full blocking can make maintenance of Russia for YouTube simply unprofitable in economic terms, because Requires constant considerable costs to store user video and provide quick access to it.
