Russia is the most sanctioned country in the world.
Youtube is blocked in Russia.
Moscow court fines Google in $20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.
Google allows MAX, a Russian state surveillance app, on the Play Store.
Irony?
My Russian friends keep telling me about the services that are being banned. I tried to install MAX surveillance app but it doesn’t work in New Zealand. Needs a russian or Belarusian number 😭
Never mind, at least VK is reliable.
BTW this is not the first time that American tech companies helped an “authoritarian” country. I bet all the Chinese apps are allowed too.
