as much as I wish it were spontaneous, it seems organized (many cases happened right on the first day of elections; (nearly?) all of the perpetrators were women across like 5-10 cases that I've read about; they all immediately started taking photos as if to show proof to someone), it seems like either Russia or Ukraine is behind that (the former would want it to discredit the opposition, the latter to discredit the Russian state, either option sounds plausible to me). Of course, the Russian police says Ukraine-linked scammers promised money for doing it.

honestly with how much some scammers can achieve at times (I'd rather not say, I've seen some abhorrent cases in the news) I tend to believe the official Russian version

you aren't, bypassing DRM is always illegal. Using others' tools to bypass DRM may be legal, just like downloading copyrighted content may be legal.

it literally says "the possibility is being considered". Nothing concrete. Rutracker has been unbanned (afaik), but that's it. That doesn't mean shit about whether you can get sued, it just means the government will be more "hands-off" in regulating Western media piracy. They are still part of the WIPO and other treaties and can't not recognize other countries' IP unless they denounce those treaties, which would be stupid to do.

I'm a programmer and I remember 33 digits, but in practice I never use pi because I never have to deal with geometry

what you have quoted is mandated by the WIPO treaty and is perfectly normal to have in your copyright laws, USA has similar laws too

piracy (in the sense of sharing copyrighted content with others) and bypassing DRM is illegal in nearly every country of the world, subject to the Berne convention and the WIPO treaty

many older Russians do remember a Soviet campaign of support for her release from prison among pioneers and others
