Meanwhile, it seems that Russia has complained in the past 24 hours against some censorship on YT, based on "the fight against covid related misinformation", and raised a diplomatic issue accusing Germany to have supported the censorship.

Some may find curious or even amusing this odd paragraph on Le Monde:

> A la fin de janvier, le président Poutine avait jugé que les entreprises majeures du secteur de l’Internet étaient « en concurrence » avec les Etats. Il dénonçait leurs « tentatives de contrôler brutalement la société ».

The main online enterprises being in competition with the states - in the attempt to brutally control society?! The formulation could probably have been less "suggestive".
