Google reportedly threatens to delete video from U.S.-based blogger after Russian censor flags it as ‘illegal gay propaganda’
A U.S.-based Russian-language blogger says Google is threatening to delete one of his YouTube posts after Russia's federal censor flagged it as prohibited content and a Russian court added it to Russia's Internet blacklist. Court records from late November 2021 confirm that a judge in Vladivostok granted a request by Russia's media regulator Roskomnadzor to ban a video uploaded to YouTube on June 11, 2019, by a man named Felix Glyukman because the content supposedly violates Russia's law against "gay propaganda."
