[Regnum] The South African High Court approved the seizure of Google South Africa's assets and the initiation of a criminal case due to the fact that the company refuses to comply with a court decision to lift the block from the Orthodox TV channel Foundation for Orthodox Television, the Moneyweb portal reported on June 10.
The head of the Orthodox Television Foundation, Hugo Johnston, who filed the lawsuit, told the publication that he is seeking enforcement of the Moscow court’s decision, made in June 2023. Google LLC was ordered to restore the foundation's YouTube channels.
Johnston said he expects to receive compensation. If a court in South Africa supports his claim, and the company does not comply with the court decision within five days, then from the sixth day it will have to pay 100 thousand rubles for each day the channel continues to be blocked. He also accused the corporation of being politically motivated.
“We view this more as compensation than as punishment,” said the head of the fund, emphasizing that there is no court decision on the claim yet.
As Regnum reported, the head of the Presidential Council for the Development of Civil Society and Human Rights, Valery Fadeev, called Google the main instrument of censorship in the world. He expressed the need to confront the corporation with an alternative.
Co-founder of the Telegram messenger Pavel Durov said that Apple and Google corporations are putting pressure on his application, including violating freedom of speech. If their requirements are not met, the application may be removed from the gadget. They censor everything that can be read on a smartphone, Durov emphasized.
