Speaking about deceit, I've just stumbled upon a good example concerning Copilot.

As expected, it, being a new service, immediately from the takeoff became unavailable for users in Russia officially. I recall that it has been launched by Microsoft just slightly more than a year ago.

But lo and behold, acquaintance writes to me that they managed to test Copilot as a service under fresh Windows 11 assembly (updates aren’t sanctioned, of course) after disabling network adapter, DNS cache flushing from command prompt, reboot and a few minutes of black magic in router settings.

What one man created, another shall tinker with.

Even more funny is that Web version doesn’t require that much fuzz, while iOS Copilot app is altogether alive and well in Russian App Store.

Sure, for routine purposes it may not be worth the frolicking under Windows, as local services are available.
