TL;DR Summary

A Russian court has fined Google 3 million roubles ($38,600) for failing to delete YouTube videos promoting "LGBT propaganda" and "false information" about Russia's military campaign in Ukraine. Russia has been levying fines against Western tech companies to increase control over what Russian internet users see online. Google's Russian subsidiary filed for bankruptcy last year after authorities seized its bank accounts following a fine of 7.2 billion roubles ($92.6 million) over its "repeated failure" to delete content.
