At the beginning of last week, the situation in relations between YouTube and Roskomnadzor escalated: video hosting blocked the channels “Soviet Television. Gosteleradiofond” and “Soviet radio. Gosteleradiofond”, which are essentially large video archives of old, still Soviet broadcasts of bygone years. Archival historical chronicles, Soviet films and radio recordings were published there. Roskomnadzor demanded to remove the blocking, because otherwise the department would have grounds for restricting YouTube’s work in Russia. Fortunately, after 10 days, Google decided to meet halfway: both channels became available to users again.
