YouTube on Saturday barred Russian state-owned media outlet RT and other Russian channels from receiving money for advertisements that run with their videos, similar to a move by Facebook, after the invasion of Ukraine. Citing "extraordinary circumstances," YouTube said that it was "pausing a number of channels’ ability to monetize on YouTube including several Russian channels affiliated with recent sanctions."
