Actually it implies no such thing. It implies that Russia is one of the many countries that where many aspects of freedom are curtailed, including the freedom to learn things that could cause one to turn on the state.
You have in fact inferred a meaning, which is 100% on you and has nothing to do with me. Maybe in future avoid publically make false accusations against people.
And seriously, it isn't common sense to say that something illegal is legal; that is ignorance. Not stupidity, by the way, just a lack of knowledge or understanding.
You see, I do work in a field where this kind of knowledge comes into practice, and I have also queried it (hypothetically) with my sister, who works for one of the biggest law firms in the world. And yes, if somebody were to sell something for which they own zero rights, then that is a criminal offence.
