The Russian analogue of Google Play turned out to be an existing redesigned application store

As you know, Russians are bad at creating anything new. They prefer to steal the finished product and present it as their own and original.

What is wrong with the Russian analogue of Google Play?

After analyzing the APK of the application file downloaded from the official website of the project, it was known that the client contains many things that were not mentioned in the F-Droid application. Specifically in the RuMarket code, we managed to find a link to the F-Droid forum and its repository on GitLab.

In addition to the references in the source code, a page was found on the official RuMarket website to add RuMarket to the F-Droid customer catalog.

Thus, the Russian “developers” F-Droid violates the terms of the GNU GPL V3 license. According to them, third-party developers have the right to modify the F-Droid client at their discretion, but in addition to the binary, they must publish the source code of the client, which has not been done.

He also created a cheap copy of Instagram in Russia before. The Russian substitute for “analogues without analogues”, Rossgram filled with stock items, has been downloaded by thousands of users. Soon, scammers took advantage of this by deceiving 100,000 users.
