Uhm, no, you must not be allowed to use a Russian search engine under any circumstances. That would be undemocratic and against free speech principles.
You can just type in the URL and make it your default search engine. No one is stopping you. Or you could just move to Russia and bask in that democracy and free speech you seem to perceive to be lacking here. Again no one is stopping you.
Completely agree. Any citizen who doesn't agree with our democratic and inclusive values should be immediately stripped of rights and shipped off to Russia.
The only parts that left outside russia are some AI related companies.
