Disagree. Even Windows have changed because of foreign laws demanding fair treatment to competitors. It is reasonable to expect goverment protection against snooping us. We are not just consumers, but private people too.
World is not a open and fair nowadays, but it gave Sailfish OS a opportunity. One reason for forming Sailfish OS Russia could be to prevent Obama from blocking russian mobile phones. It was possible, because US controlls Google and Apple. If You do not believe, then remember Wikileaks. They were prevented from having donations throught Visa or Mastercard. I do not think there was any law against it, but all US companies refused to serve them nevertheless.
Future shows what is to come. I expect better than previous year. There is interesting times ahead and I really hope for a new Sailfish phone.

But (correct me if I'm wrong), reverse-engineering is not against Russian law.

In EU legislation reverse engineering a product for compability reasons is even encouraged.

And the new President has started rolling back a lot of what Obama did.
