YouTube Taken off Russian Blacklist

YouTube, the video-sharing website, has been take off the blacklist maintained by Russian media and communications watchdog Roscomnadzor. YouTube was put on the blacklist (zapret-info.gov.ru) earlier on Wednesday and had three days to remove what Roscomnadzor said were “suicide promotion” materials. Failure to do that would have led to YouTube’s blocking across Russia. In early November Roscomnadzor blacklisted over 180 websites over offensive content.
