Moscow trying to force tech firm to lift YouTube ban on pro-Kremlin media with fines totalling astronomical sum

The total sum of legal claims against Google in Russia has reached two undecillion roubles ($20 decillion), according to the Russian news outlet RBK, a figure higher than all the money in the world combined.
