Xtremz Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 *Reported to VirtuaNews*. All report neowin.net.ru to http://contact.virtuanews.co.uk/index.php. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bling3k12 Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 I thought Neowin.net.ru was just someone running a Russian edition with Neowin's permission. I mean, I dunno but there are probably a few Russian members who don't speak English. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.K.R. Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 It is an illegal rip-off of Neowin in Russian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshalus Veteran Posted August 5, 2004 Veteran Share Posted August 5, 2004 As far as I can tell, no one authorized the Russian site, nor would anyone. There is one Neowin to rule them all :) How do you know its not a legal copy of VN? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
