Degoogle, and also avoid any company with an international arm incorporated in Russia, or outside of Russia, apparently:
Google is seeking a ruling [in US and English courts] to block [RT] from pursuing its assets in foreign jurisdictions such as South Africa, Turkey and Serbia.
According to the Turkish filings, Russian courts have determined that Google owes Tsargrad 32.8bn roubles (£273m)… [the penalty] doubles every 24 hours… Russian courts had “levied unprecedented fines and arbitrary legal penalties against Google in an attempt to limit access to information on our services and as a punishment for our compliance with international sanctions against Russian individuals and organisations”.
For real.
Putin, please do nestle next.
See, I’m torn. I don’t want russia to have ANY money at all.
…but I DO also hate nestle.
Oh I don’t think nestle would give Putin shit. I just want Putin to try, and by doing so burn that particular bridge. Nestle isn’t gonna stop doing business in Russia any other way.
Let em fight it out!
Ruling class does it all the time. Keep citizens enraged on issues of race, gender, religion, sports, and so on so they are distracted from realising the one true war of ruling class vs everybody else.
/s in a sense that shit flung at the ruling class tends to roll downhill. If nestle loses a bunch of money, they will raise prices to keep the infinite growth machine running. If Russia steals a bunch of money, they have more capital for weapons.
Its kind of lose/lose for us :(
