Not really such a big deal - there’s no function for yandex to fulfil if there’s no economy, no internet - I give it a week until Putin cuts all international routing.
Edit: see I’m being downvoted, probably because “that would never happen” - I think it’s very realistic that they will either shut down the internet domestically or they’ll cut all non-domestic routing - they want/need information control, and the internet is porous. If dissent continues in Russia, they will do it.
