Comedy gold.
On my phone website fits the screen & appears normal, scrolling right reveals rest of the monies
Yepyep, did the same on mine, I just zoomed the page out.
Honestly, really hope they did this on purpose, although I’ve seen plenty of cases where someone forgot to scale the text to Mobile and it went careening off-screen.
And the fact that Google didn’t pay them more money than exists in the world will be why Russia blocks Google’s operations in the country and seizes every bit of property they can get their hands on that they say was even vaguely related to Google’s operations. They didn’t even bother with a realistic number, because in the end they don’t really care who does or doesn’t believe them.
They didn’t start with that fine, it was just compounding interest
The court imposed a fine of 100 thousand rubles ($1,025) per day, with the total fine doubling every week.
And regardless, Russia can’t block Google’s operations in Russia because Google isn’t operating in Russia since the war. Russia is trying to fire Google when Google quit 2 years ago.
they could just go for googol dollars
According to my Google Currency Calculator app, that translates to approximately $14.38 USD.
Best I can do is tree-fiddy
What’s that number in words? Sure. I could use Google, but they just got fined by Russia for $20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 so can they really be trusted?

2 x 10^34 for those people who like to use numbers to represent numbers in a sane way.
Being fined by Russia is actually a positive stamp of approval in my book!
I was going to say Russia must love humiliating themselves but I guess this is painfully obvious the past 2 years
Google would therefore have to find more money than exists on Earth to pay Moscow
Well to be fair, I do think it’s plausible that one day Google will indeed control all the money in the world.
They know this is impossible - even with their worthless currency. I guess they will soon provide their own services or they will revoke internet access from their citizens.
It is not only more Rubles than currently exists, but more money than currently exists in any currency 😂
According to the Article:
Google in Russia has been inactive since 2022 after the search giant effectively pulled out of the country following Putin’s special military operation.
I guess they will soon provide their own services
Is Yandex not state run? It does everything, the way Musk wants Xitter to, and then some.
What you don’t need Google to access internet
Yes, but users with basic knowledge don’t even get the difference between a web browser and a search engine. Shutting down Google seems like a perfect “simple” explanation for a general digital lockdown.
You’re describing users without basic knowledge.
Why does the article keep referring to Google as “The Chocolate Factory?”
The Register has been referring to Google as The Chocolate Factory for almost 10 years. As to why, probably because of google’s confectionary named Android releases, which they stopped at Android 10

Maybe because their company produces pure shit?
All made up, just like the reason for invading Ukraine
RT broke a bunch of YouTube rules and should have been banned too.
And they only stopped writing zeros only because there was no more space on their paper form.
April 1st came early
For monopolistic behavior, right?
