Genuine question, what is the concern about a Russian search engine?
Every argument I can think of is just worse with Google (spying, propaganda, censorship, security etc).
It depends on the region.
My neibhours never heard about the need to “denazify” us from Google’s home government.
War is much much worse than google. (Btw. Kagi is nice alternative, where you are the customer, not the product)
> what is the concern
Additional inteligence channel for their three letter agencies.
When somebody asks Yandex for data, decision making is done in such environment: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suspicious_deaths_of_notable...
(such environment also suggests how accountable are the people requesting said data)

Plenty of people think Trump is "literally" Hitler... Maybe your neighbors don't think that, but plenty of people do.
