About fucking time.
What did Russia finally cross the shelling threshold or some shit?
Russia started limiting youtube speed after google refused to take down certain content they wanted them to take down. So Vlad got pissed and wanted to ban youtube entirely, but slowdown was a first step. Google just decided that two can play this game. Don't assume good will or anything they probably just decided it cuts into their revenue
Trust me I wouldn’t dream of it
They did specifically remove “don’t be evil” from their charter a while back
Probably just sanctions catching up/harder to make payments?
Ukraine made it clear to Google that siding with then was more likely to be beneficial than siding with Russia. What changed is Ukraine successfully invaded Kursk
That's not what happened
"We are deactivating all AdSense accounts with Russia as the country of location. This means that it will be impossible to make a profit from monetization through such accounts. Earnings for July will be paid out between August 21 and 26, if the account has not been suspended and payment thresholds have been met," the Google Payments team said in a statement.
Is it hard to change if you've left Russia for real, or use some tricks to spoof your location? I had no reason to try that and don't know how strict Google is there.
Wow. There's people still using Google besides ai?
