        It's just that a lot of people are tired as fsck about articles with a lot of whataboutery. For some reason, you don't see similar articles about US run sites like CERT, which for instance completely lacks any mention of where Student originates from (who'd have thunk it), but you don't see articles being written pointing this out (and that's good, because it would be just as useful as an article pointing out that water is wet).

        Everybody already knows that each government has their own intelligence machine and their own political motivations to point out what their 'enemies' are doing because they're evil.

        Please keep technical articles technical.

        And btw; insinuating that anyone complaining about this sort of this is a putinbot is so last year.

    They probably use the American one

    These databases are used by everyone so I'd guess that the Russians primary reference is the American database with the Russian one being more of an Appendix.
