Netflix Declines to Carry Russian Propaganda Channels

Naman Ramachandran Netflix will not carry 20 Russian free-to-air propaganda channels as they could theoretically be required to under Russian law. In December 2021, Netflix was added by the Russian regulator, Roskomnadzor, to their register for audiovisual services because the service reached over 100,000 subscribers. Consequently, Netflix is theoretically required as part of a law — known locally as the Vitrina TV law — to distribute 20 “must carry” free to air Russian news, sports and entertainment TV channels.The channels include Channel One, NTV and Spa, a channel operated by the Russian Orthodox Church.
