YouTube Files Appeal Against Regulator In Russia Over Content Blocked By New Firewall
Google this week fired off one of the first high profile tests of Russia's controversial new firewall -- erected November 1, 2012 to block child porn, drugs and suicide content; but seen by critics as a route for the government to block whatever else it chooses. Google's YouTube operation in Russia has filed an appeal against the Russian regulator for blocking YouTube content. The appeal, filed on February 11, concerns a block of a video that showed how to apply Halloween makeup: because it shows how to make a wound, Roscomnadzor (Russia's consumer watchdog) also deemed that it encouraged suicide and suicidal tendencies.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/9FuNPh3skfo/
