YouTube Restricts Access to Russian Channels at Request of Ukraine​

Google’s YouTube said it is taking several actions against Russia in response to the war, including restricting access to RT, a Russian state-controlled television network, and other channels in Ukraine.

The video platform on Saturday morning said the restrictions on RT and other channels came in response to a request from the Ukrainian government.

YouTube said it is also pausing several Russian channels’ ability to monetize on the platform, in line with recent sanctions, and “significantly” limiting recommendations to those channels.


So are Ukrainian media all accurate and reliable?

It would be interesting if it were possible for the west to briefly ban all VPN traffic from Russia and its sphere of influence. I would bet that a lot of article commenters and social media participants pretending to be Americans would be absent.

Your newfound concern amounts to "Look at that stuff over there! Definitely don't look over here!" because you know you're screwing up at home.
(Hell, Biden's senility has even emboldened foreign countries to act militarily)

LOL, love that they keep trying with this 'Biden is senile' stuff when Trump is asked questions about Ukraine and responds with a rant about windmills. Or when he literally just heard the word "wall" used in a metaphorical sense and went into a tirade about his border wall.

It’s going to be funny because years from now Ukraine will have surrendered and been reincorporated into a new USSR and the tech oligarchs will still be churning out fake stories of heroic ukranian resistance and the ghost of Kiev still flying.

Good. Russia has nothing to say that's worth listening to, anyway.

What I find amusing is people like you pretending to root for that outcome purely to spite the liberals.
