I’m a bit surprised Google is still serving at Russia, are they doing it to avoid loosing browser and search market share? They could not be making any money on advertising there, I assume?

When they show an advertisement of, say, some asian company to a russian user, they are still making money, aren't they?

They just don't show any ads to Russian users (if the user doesn't use a VPN to the outer world).
