A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I've always thought yandex was based on China (because of the great Chinese translation).
Surprisingly, the Netherlands:
The Yandex N.V. "head office" is conveniently located in the third largest airport in the world, so people can pick up mail sent to that address without having to actually live in the country.
Their headquarters are very much in Russia, and the Netherlands address is surely about avoiding political sanctions.
