Rutube representatives confirmed that the application can now be installed in the United States, calling it a “ridiculous confusion.”
Russian video hosting Rutube has become unavailable on Google Play for Russians, but the application can be installed in the USA. RosSMI wrote this on Wednesday, October 2.
The representatives of the video hosting site confirmed the restrictions for Russian users.
Now Russians are actively complaining that the Rutube application has become unavailable on the Google Play app store.
“There was a funny confusion in the Google Play store: instead of introducing a severe penalty, the Rutube application became available only in the USA!” – said representatives of video hosting Rutube.
At Rutube’s request, the search returned the VK Video and YouTube applications.
On August 10, the Rutube application disappeared from the iPhone App Store. Rutube explained that the removal of the application was a result of the American company’s sanctions.
It was previously reported that YouTube blocked 200 channels in Russia.
