Russia Fines Facebook $177,000 For Failing To Delete Content Deemed Illegal
MOSCOW, Dec 16 (Reuters) – Russia has fined Facebook-owner Meta Platforms (FB.O) 13 million roubles ($177,000), a Moscow court said on Thursday, for failing to delete content the government deems illegal, the latest in a string of penalties against foreign technology firms.
Moscow has increased pressure on Big Tech this year in a campaign that critics characterise as an attempt by the Russian authorities to exert tighter control over the internet, something they say threatens to stifle individual and corporate freedom.
