Commentary by Безграничный аналитик:
The key topic of the day was the antics of the domestic court, which decided to judge a little and fined Google two undecillion rubles for blocking YouTube channels of Russian TV channels. To be honest, this is the first time in my life that I have heard of this number being used in any more or less practical way. Even quadrillions and quintillions are not really used in life, and this situation is even more interesting. But the Russian court boldly issued such a luxurious fine, the size of which is mind-boggling even against the backdrop of NVIDIA's capitalization. It goes without saying that no one will pay this fine due to the obvious senselessness of the event. Even Zimbabwe during the period of hyperinflation would be afraid of such a sum in Zimbabwean dollars. By the way, using the favorite measurement method of "military bloggers", two undecillion rubles could buy several nonillion (that's a unit with 27 zeros) "Mavics". Such a quantity would fill not only the entire Solar System, but also the entire spiral arm of the Milky Way galaxy.
Then why did they issue such a strange fine? It's all very simple, in fact, it was done to cut Google off from the Russian market forever. The SMO will end sooner or later, Western companies will again rush to Russia in an attempt to profit from the markets and oust those who occupied their niches during the SMO. Google would have tried, but not with a fine of two undecillion rubles, which will also constantly grow.
Thus, the American company was simply squeezed out of Russia forever. Because these fines will still have to be challenged in Russian courts. Issuing this fine is a humiliating kick to Google, like, get out, corporation, we don't need you. And this is exactly how it will be perceived by the management of this structure.
And calculate the next court decisions in googols. It will be more convenient this way, and everyone understands it. Not to mention undecillions, nonillions and septillions.
