It's 2022 and YouTube banning pro Russian Russian artists… oh wait it's 2024 and YouTube banning those artist by request of Baltics
Russia directly approved new law to ban YouTube by September
Baltics population is 6 million and now YouTube will lose two countries with combined population of 155 millions
Like it would been understandable if it was 2022 today or US has requested this ban, but Baltics ?
Edit: I read this article in another place that didn't mention this:
the Lithuanian Radio and Television Commission (LRTK)
the Baltic country threatened to fine the video platform nearly $ 55,000
Also all the artist they asked to ban are boomer artists whose main audience ain't even on YouTube
The YouTube foid that was leading this case as true foid. 55k is literally nothing, it's probably not even 0,001% of money they been making from Russia

That's what, an hour of operating cost for youtube? Maybe 15 minutes?

Until I have proofs I will blame a foid for this because I can't just see a reason why or any benefit. And to make sure it full r-slur move I checked if the video "my best friend is president putin" still on YouTube
