It’s the kind of fine you might want to consider paying off in instalments. A Russian court has demanded Google pay a number so large that even the Kremlin conceded to NBC News on Thursday it was more a symbolic gesture than a sum it soon expects to bolster its war funds. The fine amounts to around $20 decillion — 20 followed by 33 zeros — or two undecillion rubles, a 37-digit figure.
“Although it is a specific amount, I cannot even say this number, it is rather filled with symbolism,” Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said Thursday when asked by NBC News how Google was expected to pay such a large sum. “The company should not restrict our broadcasters on their platform,” he added, on his daily briefing call with reporters. “This should be a reason for the Google leadership to pay attention to this and improve the situation.
