Russian Court Fines Google for Not Deleting Content Deemed Illegal

A Moscow court fined Alphabet Inc.'s Google 3 million roubles ($40,400) for not deleting content that it deemed illegal, part of a wider dispute between Russia and the U.S. tech giant. Russia in October threatened to fine Google a percentage of its annual Russian turnover for repeatedly failing to delete banned content on its search engine and YouTube, in Moscow's strongest move yet to rein in foreign tech firms.
