Maybe not, but they probably has to be very careful about taking money from anybody with Russian citizen ship.

gee all those entities are for-profit, why does Linux need to prioritize profits again?
Okay you’re still missing the point. The same reason the Red Cross or Doctors Sans Borders needs to abide by laws in several different countries.
the red cross has to arbitrarily ban russians due to a proxy war for nazis?
Probably. I'm sure they're obligated to restrict their operations in all kinds of ways.
You're probably right, but do their leaders tend to broadcast themselves agreeing with these restrictions?

profit has nothing to do with it. Its about where you reside or do business.
lmfao got eem. at the end of the day yeah, its "profit" in an indirect way, but my point still stands.
if being based in the USA is more important than not arbitrarily banning Russians then fuck Linux
