    Being Russian => banned from doing business with the rest of the world

    That’s pretty straight forward to me.

      and what do random developers have to do with a war between oligarchies? are we banning the dirty us imperialists next, because they do more damage than russia ever will?

      or are we finding a negative thing about every nationality and ban international opensource collaboration entirely?

      or, and hear me out on this one, the individual programmers making linux and 90% of the internet happen might not be fascists regardless of what shitty government reingns their lives?

          i do, (contemporary, us) sanctions are a way to punish entire countries for daring not to adopt neoliberalism.

          i wonder how cuba would be doing right now if not for it.
