To pay $ 24.5m to settle Trump’s trump against Google YouTube
Google’s YouTube has agreed to pay $ 24.5 million to settle the case brought by US President Donald Trump, when the video platform attacked the US capital on 6 January 2021.
According to court documents filed on Monday, the settlement of the case, which had been going on for more than four years, works as a $ 22 million for Trump to contribute to the Trust for the National Mall and to contribute to the construction of the White House Ballroom. The rest of the American will go to the Conservative Union and other plains.
Google is the latest Big Tech company to settle the cases brought by Trump. In January, Meta agreed to pay a $ 25 million US to prosecute its 2021 suspension from Facebook. Elon Musk K. X agreed to settle a uniform case brought against the company – known as Twitter – for $ 10 million US.
When cases were filed against Meta, Twitter and YouTube, legal experts predicted that Trump had little possibility of being prevalent.
YouTube does not enter the disposal liability, says the filing. Google confirmed the disposal but refused to comment beyond this.
Trump’s YouTube account has been restored from 2023. Settlement will barely dent the alphabet, the original Google company, which is about $ 3 trillion US – an increase of about $ 600 billion, or 25 percent, since Trump’s return to the White House.
The disclosure of the township came a week before October. 6 The hearing of the 6 court held a hearing to discuss the matter in Okland, California with US District Judge Yavon Gonzalez-Razors.
