This is the government equivalent of “you owe me a bajillion dollars!” An unserious fine from an unserious government.

Even old-ass Dr. Evil snorted in surprise.
2 undecillion rubles ($2.5 decillion USD)
Or they'll push it out a window.
Someone played too much Adventure Capitalist.
They could pay with one of those comically large cardboard checks, then forget to sign it.
I'm sure Google is taking that real seriously.
Keep dreaming :-D
Its from a fine that doubles every day. There's no judge literally demanding google pay this amount of money. Makes a good headline, though.
FTA: "The company’s Russian subsidiary declared bankruptcy in 2022". Its just been doubling the whole time.
Good, but not high enough for what Google has done.
Hey man, fuck google, but this isn’t achieving diddly squat lmao.
It is how things should be, although for valid reasons, not "the banned our accounts, we mad, grrrrr". The alternative is companies getting a "fine" that's a drop in the bucket and just continuing how they did previously. If the company does shitty things and gets banned because they can't pay a huge fine because of GDPR for instance, then good riddance.
If you don't think giving a tech monopoly multiple life sentences is cool get out of my mentions.
Lemme know how that one turns out for ya bub
Yeah enjoy your reply guy account where you post Hello Fellow Kids-isms homeslice
If Russia wanted to be the good guy, they'd hack Google and opensource all the code.
There it is, the mildest tech take on the fediverse
I am sure you would prefer shilling for Google or Israel. Tough luck.
Oo, topical and feisty. No I remember being a twentysomething, say it louder for the cheap seats etc
All you know how to do is mindlessly repeat what your bosses tell you to get your treats 😭😭😭
What did they do?
Hey look, we found a guy who believes in "don't be evil" in 2024! Try not to laugh!
