iTunes removes “extremist” songs to comply with Russian regulator’s order

Apple’s music service iTunes has deleted songs by the groups Korroziya Metalla (Corrosion) and Tsiklon-B (Cyclon-B), which Russian courts previously recognized as extremist, according to a press release by Roskomnadzor, the Russia’s government’s media watchdog agency.

On October 26, Russian censors blocked several pages of iTunes that contained music by these two bands. By removing the songs, Apple has complied with Roskomnadzor’s takedown order.
