JAKARTA - The Russian Foreign Ministry on Tuesday, March 1, said a system should they build to contain the western tech giants. These big techs between Meta Platforms Inc and Alphabet's Google, whom they say have been responsible for what they call "instigating war".
According to a report by the Russian news agency, Interfax, the Russian Communications Authority, Roskomnadzor, is also demanding that foreign internet services stop discriminating against Russian media in Europe.
Google and Meta are among internet companies facing possible punitive action in Russia after failing to open local offices and take other actions required by communications laws.

In addition, Meta has also banned Russian state media content from appearing on Facebook and Instagram platforms globally. This is considered by Russia as an attempt to silence them to provide balanced information to the world.
Meanwhile, according to Russian critics, the content produced by Russian state media so far tends to contain misleading propaganda and is written unilaterally. This is also what according to Facebook has violated their content policies.
Meta also felt that it was natural that they would take this unilateral action against the Russian state media. But the consequences may be severe for Facebook and Instagram. Apart from failing to comply with the conditions for opening a local office in Russia, they can also be subject to other additional penalties.
