I heard Russia is full of Nazis, and if that level of hearsay is fine for staging a multi year invasion and destroying a thousand years of history it’s just FINE for segregating bad-actors and persona non grata.
From what I saw in the executive order it wasn't limited to just sanctioned companies. Linus and other maintainers haven't come out with which specific sanction they're talking about so its just speculation
Yes, and I said I want open-source to be open. As in not just open-source, but also open to all. That is my personal moral value, and I advocate for that. What the OSI supports has nothing to do with that.
.ml is full of tankies. Also, nothing in open-source principles say that to my knowledge. Am I not allowed to have beliefs not explicitly defined by the OSI?
I actually just emailed RMS about this and I'm genuinely curious what he says. If anyone else is interested, I'll ask if he's fine with me sharing some of the response.
I've contributed to open-source projects for years. My account name is my real name. I'm not a bot. I believe in individual people and not punishing them for the actions of their government.
It is genuine xenophobia. I like in Poland, and its like you're either a homophobe, or a xenophobe- with pretty limited inbetween. (And there are plenty of people who are both)
This is about open-source being open. I'm a very non-tankie, and I think this is bad- though a bit better if its only people working for sanctioned companies.
