Google began complying with Russian requirements and has deleted around 70
percent of the websites blacklisted by authorities, an unnamed Google
employee told Russia's Vedomosti business daily Wednesday. An unnamed
Roskomnadzor source reportedly confirmed the information to the paper. On
Thursday, a Roskomnadzor spokesman told the state-run RIA Novosti news
agency that the regulator had established a "constructive dialogue" with
Google over filtering content. "We are fully satisfied with the dialogue
at this time," Vadim Ampelonsky, the spokesman, was cited as saying.
Google Russia declined to comment.
