Russia fined Google $20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 - that’s 2.5 trillion trillion trillion dollars after the US tech giant took action against Putin's propaganda.

Does it helps helping them censure the web ? It's kinda what those dictators are trying to do in the first place.

Like seriously, there is no winning with those kind of people. They only way to win the game is to not play.

I mean, they are trying and failing to censure the web to their benefit. Hence the "fines". Hypothetically, due to fines those services will be blocked anyway, that's mostly the point.
