@[email protected] @[email protected] even if it wasn't, this whole thing hasn't started last year. the article i linked is like 5 years old, actually wikipedia somehow has 2 pages on copyright in russia and neither mention software though, so maybe its like borderline legal? though i remember companies being sued for using pirated software the fact is that nobody really cares about piracy here. like, i still see people selling usb sticks with pirated music, lol. and some of the largest torrent trackers are russian.
