Russia Fines TikTok Over Legal Violations

On Friday, a Russian court imposed a fine of three million roubles ($28,929.60) on TikTok, citing the platform’s failure to comply with legal restrictions related to the distribution of specific types of information.

The Moscow courts’ press service announced the ruling but did not provide further details regarding the specific violations TikTok was accused of committing.

The decision reflects Russia’s ongoing scrutiny of technology companies operating within its jurisdiction, where stringent laws regulate online content and platforms.
