1. Yandex is dutch controlled, the russia-related business got sold in 2024 to Russian investors. 2. Yandex was never owned by the Russian government, albeit government-related censorship happened (but so does on Twitter/Google/Meta etc as they all have to comply with local laws where they operate). 3. Kagi answers questions about Russian war crimes. You can try yourself [1] 4. There's no such thing as a legal war, the closest is a UN sanctioned peacekeeping operation.

Not the OP, but I think 'illegal' was for 'war crimes', not 'war'.

This is naive on so many levels. Yandex is Russian government. You can't take a shit without KGB in Russia.

  Only the Russian business is in hands of Russian investors since 2024. And again, you can check that Kagi answers any query about Russia yourself.

    enrico, at this point you're knowingly spreading misinformation. I corrected you in my last comment: the yandex search index is owned by the russian entity. there is no non-russian "yandex" anymore, period. > After a short transition period following completion, YNV will cease to use the Yandex brand, which will be retained by the Target group. We expect that our International Businesses will develop their own branding going forward. We intend to seek shareholder approval to change the legal name of YNV in due course. https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1513845/000151384524000002/yndx-20240205xex99d1.htm https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1513845/000151384524...

this is absolutely not true. yandex IS the russia-related business that got sold in 2024, the dutch entity (now known as "nebius group") is basically just data centers now.

Yes of course, "independant" investors that would jump by the broken window by themselves if they did criticize the Kremlin.
