Russia’s media watchdog has threatened to slow down the speed of Google if it fails to delete what it calls “unlawful content.”
Roskomnadzor has given Google 24 hours to remove videos it says relate to drugs, violence and extremism.
Google – which owns YouTube – could be fined between 800,000 and 4 million roubles (£7,700 – £38,000) by the service. The tech firm said it often requires court decisions to react to requests.
