Widely-read daily Moskovskiy Komsomolets fumed: "A trademark on the state symbol marks the end of the state." Meanwhile, one Twitter user, Vsevolod Chernozub , said putting a logo on the flag was "the lowest of the low" and should be punished. Another, Podakuni , tweeted to say that the trademark may just as well be tattooed onto athletes' faces. The intrusive presence of advertising in Russia has long been a source of complaints. One official in Moscow described it as "chaos and mayhem", in daily paper Vechernyaya Moskva , saying that more than 70% of billboards and advertising signs were erected in Moscow illegally.
