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

    They could pay with one of those comically large cardboard checks, then forget to sign it.

    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.

        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 Russia wanted to be the good guy, they’d hack Google and opensource all the code.

          I don’t? Where did I say this? I am merely asking what they did concretely that ruffled your feathers.

          That comment was overflowing with hate / anger and I want to understand why.
