Simferopol resident Maxim Serdyuk reported this on his Facebook page.

“Minus of Google Analytics. They shrug,” he wrote, posting a screenshot of Google Analytics’ response to a request from Crimean users: “Your client does not have permission to receive the analytic/web URL from this server. That's all we know."

However, it is easy to bypass the blocking by installing a program like ZenMate in your browser - it “deceives” Google by indicating Germany instead of Crimea as the location of the computer.

Let us remind you that earlier the American company Google blocked Crimean users from accessing a number of its services; from February 1, access to the Google Play application store will be disabled.
