Google revenge: millions of Russian citizens will lose big money because of the company's decisions

Against the backdrop of YouTube blocking, the American techno-giant decided to strike the media and bloggers from the aggressor country by disconnecting Google AdSense. Google AdSense Internet Internet Service will stop working in the Russian Federation. In this regard, millions of Russian accounts will be deactivated. Google has reported this by email, writes 3dnews. The company reports that all ADSense accounts registered in Russia will be disconnected.

For publishers from the aggressor country, this means that they will no longer be able to earn income from monetization of their content. The latest payments will be accrued to Publisers for July 2024 at the end of August, said Google Payments. Russian Internet media, youtube bloggers will get rid of access to Google AdSense, will not be able to advertise their content and, accordingly, will lose all revenues from advertising through the service.

The Google AdSense Service previously introduced restrictions on users from the Russian Federation. As early as March 2022, the advertising network was disconnected by a demonstration of ads in Russia and it was forbidden to create new accounts by Russian citizens. Earlier, we wrote that YouTube stopped working throughout Russia. In total, the service does not work in 80% of users from Russia. More than 11. 5 thousand complaints of video hosting have been registered.
