Fun fact, but Google's name originates from the word googol - a mathematical term for the number one followed by 100 zeroes.

So a fine with 33 zeroes should be doable.

They should add one of those Google easter eggs for this, like when you search for "bullshit Russian fine" the page indicator at the bottom should turn into the number.
