MOSCOW<\/a>: Russia<\/a> fined Alphabet's Google<\/a> 5 million roubles ($67,190), a Moscow court<\/a> said on Tuesday, the latest in a string of penalties against the technology giant for failing to delete content the government deems illegal.
Moscow<\/a> has increased pressure on foreign tech companies this year in a campaign that critics characterise as an attempt by the Russian authorities to exert tighter control over the internet, something they say threatens to stifle individual and corporate freedom.
Google<\/a> did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
