YouTube stops all monetization features in Russia
 11 Mar 2022
Russian YouTube creators will lose a source of income now that the company has suspended Ad sales during the war with Ukraine.

The move is the second action Google, which owns YouTube, has taken against Russia amid the country's ongoing invasion of Ukraine. The first ad sales decision came a day after Russia's media regulator, Roskomnadzor, demanded Google to block ads on YouTube that contained what it called "false political information" about Ukraine.

"We've recently paused all Google and YouTube ads in Russia," a YouTube spokesperson told Newsweek. "As a follow-up, we're now extending this pause to all our monetization features, including YouTube Premium, Channel Memberships, Super Chat, and Merchandise, for viewers in Russia."

YouTube said that no ads will appear on Google Search or YouTube in Russia. Youtube creators won't be able to monetize on content from viewers in Russia, but can still make money from ads and other monetization products shown to users in countries outside of Russia.

Last week, Google stopped advertising content produced by Russian state media, citing it didn't want people to take advantage of the conflict for financial gain.
