YouTube banned in Russia over Racist Video
A Russian court has demanded that a Russian ISP block access to YouTube, as well as the Internet Archive and three online libraries, for hosting extremist videos and writings by Adolf Hitler, respectively.

Russia joins a growing list of governments who have blocked access to the video hosting site, including China, Brazil, Indonesia, Iran, Morocco, Pakistan, Tunisia, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Thailand and the United Arab Emirates. YouTube material has also been censored in the U.S. and U.K.
