I was super impressed when I interacted with Yandex ML engineering people like a decade ago on a conf call - they were trying to sell us their services. Very smart and very clearly outward-looking. Haven't followed the company in detail since. Wonder what happened to them. [removed inaccurate details]

It's not a revenge of the the regime. A decade ago it was a different company, now they all are completely under the cap of FSB, it's basically a Lubyanka filial. It's serfdom all over again, not that strange it got leaked by some unhappy employee.

Reading up on the current situation with the company - yeah, I think you're right. :/
