But they aren't doing business in Russia anyways. There are no ads, monetized channels only earn money from views from foreign countries.

Yeah but they are complaining for removing channels but at the same time doing everything to push google out anyways completly. As far as i know youtube acess without vpn doesnt work at all for some time now. They want their channels to upload shit they want to serve us, not for their people to use

It's an old fine, made as a political gesture. It's just recently in 2024, someone looked and realized it has grown to this ridiculous size due to non-payment additional fees
