Google halts monetization for Russian YouTube bloggers
The Google AdSense advertising service has fully shut down monetization for accounts in Russia and stopped operating on the Russian Internet (Runet)
The Moscow Times reported this on August 11.
On August 12, Russian bloggers and content creators received a notice about the end of monetization.
“We are deactivating all AdSense accounts based in Russia. This means you will no longer be able to earn money through these accounts. Earnings for July will be paid out between August 21 and 26. If your account isn’t suspended, you’ll receive the payments,” Google AdSense said in the letter.
As a result, Russian YouTube bloggers and website owners will completely lose access to Google AdSense and its services.
In 2022, the company already banned advertising in Russia, meaning ads are not shown in search results, on YouTube, or partner sites. However, Russian bloggers could still earn revenue from views of their content outside Russia.
