A Russian court has ruled Google owes $20 decillion in fines for blocking media stations, a figure dwarfing the global GDP, highlighting legal absurdity.
"Google was called by a Russian court to administrative liability under Art. 13.41 of the Administrative Offenses Code for removing channels on the YouTube platform. The court ordered the company to restore these channels," lawyer Ivan Morozov stated.
The court imposed a fine of 100 thousand rubles ($1,025) per day, with the total fine doubling every week, leading to astronomical amounts due to compound interest.
Even if Sundar Pichai rummages around the back of the sofa, he won't be able to raise the funds to pay the penalty, highlighting the futility.
