     @janvlug I think that main problem is that is a kind of collective punishiment. We don't know how many of those are working for Putin gov.

     Next step will be remove Gazan, Lebanese devs?

     @strebski @janvlug my argument is exactly that...

     We don't know if there's any of them that works for Russian Government, so we can't just look for '.ru' emails and ban them...
