Moscow: A court in Moscow has found Google guilty of disclosing the personal data of Russian soldiers killed during the war in Ukraine, the state news agency Tass reported.

According to Anadolu Agency, Russia's Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology and Mass Media determined that content on YouTube included prohibited information revealing the identities and personal data of deceased Russian soldiers. The material was described as a violation of Russian law, which bans the dissemination of such information. The court imposed a fine of 3.8 million rubles (approximately $46,240) on the company.

The same court has fined Google several times for what it called violations, such as posting a YouTube video with instructions for how Russian troops could surrender, and for restricting Russian state media channels on YouTube. According to local media reports, Google's debt to Russia for administrative fines reached 2 undecillion rubles ($2.4 decillion), a 36-digit figure, and continues to grow due to late payment.
