Since Russia pushed tens of thousands of troops into Ukraine on Feb. 24, it has clashed with Big Tech over content, censorship, data, and local representation in a simmering disagreement that has erupted into a full-fledged information war.
The year before, Russia fined Google 3 million roubles ($46,540) for failing to store Russian users’ personal data in databases on Russian soil, and it announced on Friday that it had opened a new case against Google for “repeated failures to comply with Russian legislation.”
According to Roskomnadzor, Google might face a fine of between 6 and 18 million roubles.
The regulator also announced that it has initiated cases against Airbnb, Pinterest, Likeme, Twitch, Apple, and United Parcel Service for alleged first-time offenses that could result in fines ranging from 1-6 million roubles.
Likeme was unavailable for comment, and the other five companies had no quick response.
