Google began to block the accounts of the deputies of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, caught under U.S.sanctions

advertisingThe talks about whether the American corporations Apple and Google will block smartphones and other mobile devices of Russians working on the operating systems Android (Google) and iOS (Apple) have continued for many days.
The fact that they are technically capable of carrying out such a procedure is beyond doubt.
Experts have repeatedly said that no tricks will save smartphones from turning into \"bricks\" and everything depends solely on the will of the American copyright holders.
At the same time, it is pointed out that in such a scenario, the above-mentioned corporations will suffer enormous reputational losses.
Perhaps this is what is holding them back at the moment.
Other countries with strained relations with the U.S., such as China, can urgently begin the procedure of complete rejection of Western software for mobile devices, having developed or brought to the necessary level their own competitive alternatives.
Moreover, the same China already has the necessary developments in the form of Huawei Harmony OS, and therefore such a transition in countries disloyal to the U.S.
could be quite fast.
All this will result in major financial losses for Apple and Google, which will inevitably affect their further development.
At the moment, Apple and Google do not block smartphones of ordinary Russians, but people who have been included in the U.S.
sanctions list are not so lucky.
Several members of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, hit by the U.S.
personal sanctions, reported about blocking their Google accounts - says RBC.
CPRF members Mikhail Matveev and Nina Ostanina, as well as United Russia member Maria Butina reported that they were completely banned from accessing their accounts of the \"corporation of good.\" Their YouTube channels were also blocked.
According to Maria Butina, she did not receive any prior notification from Google, and she only received a message about the fact that the blocking had already taken place.On March 24, 328 members of the Russian State Duma, among others, fell under U.S.
sanctions.
The legislative body itself was also under the ban.
Dmitry Rogozin, head of Roskosmos, said that the YouTube channel of the state corporation had removed most of the videos of his participation, as well as records of a visit to the Vostochny cosmodrome and some other videos.MP Matveev noted that such actions of the U.S.
corporation eventually leads to even greater consolidation of power, including inter-party.For the post there is a rewardThis material was written by a website visitor, and there is a reward for it.
