Not one undecillion, but two!
Russia ordered Google to pay a fine of two undecillion roubles (roughly $20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000). The sum is many times bigger than the world’s GDP. The fine is punishment for restrictions on Russian state media on YouTube, a website that Google owns. A Kremlin spokesperson reportedly said that he “cannot even pronounce this number”. — The Economist, World in Brief, Nov 1 2024
Yes an undecillion is a thing. What is the point of a ruling like this?
