VK Video
The video arm of VKontakte, holding billions of clips with high potential for finding Russian-language reuploads. Most of it sits behind a login wall: web search requires an account, and the official API needs a registered app and access token. Check it when chasing RU-sphere video content, but expect to sign in to search.
Video / audio / music IP-blocked
