    Especially, because they can chose existing names as there is no Copyright in Russia (afaik, probably a wrong myth but idk)

      No there was copyright, it was only relatively enforced between 2000-2015 ish. And then probably only in tourist heavy areas. In the olden days you could find any soft on “black markets” in open stalls
