OREANDA-NEWS. Earlier, the Rambler Group sued Twitch due to copyright infringement on broadcasting English Premier League football matches. The company demanded to recover 180.345 billion rubles from the world's largest streaming service and block it in Russia, Kommersant reported. Data confirmed by both sides.

Rambler sued Twitch for copyright protection back in the summer (the lawsuit was filed on August 26), but the public only became aware of this now. The next meeting is scheduled for December 20. Rambler considered technology his property. Large companies and industry associations supported Nginx. When filing a lawsuit, Rambler only demanded to block Twitch, a spokeswoman for the service said. Later (when - it is not clear) the company wanted to compensate for about 147 million rubles.

But later, Twitch said that Rambler withdraws the claim for illegal content without payment of compensation - Reuters.
