You don't know what "state-owned" means in terms of Russia and no one on this website does. It does not equal loyal to Russia's interests neither to interests of russian people.

Yandex is one of the most disloyal and pro-ukraine companies in Russia, it to this day does not recognize Crimea as Russia yada yada. It's own AI systems are hardwired to refuse any pro-russian topics and only cover pro-ukrainian side. In that way, gemini and chatgpt are both significantly more pro-russian, which is hilarious (if only they didn't block RU region).

Being state owned means nothing if there are no will to trample down disloyalty.

Again, see core comment. People in this thread cheering for yandex bombing really don't understand a single thing.
