Apple also translated “hey siri” into “privet siri” in russian. “Hey” means both greeting and exclamation (like oy) in english, but “privet” is just a greeting that is used only once a day. It’s like you have a coworker Alice and when you ask her something instead of saying “hey Alice could you please …” you say “greetings Alice …” every single time, sometimes few times in a row. It’s sounds so creepy. But the reason for that is likely just an ignorance, not political games.
