Yeah but they also might compromise it. It’s a fairly high likelihood that they would wish to inflict damage on Western technology so doesn’t seem like a particularly smart thing to do is to allow them to have continued access.
And if your mom had wheels she’d be the town bicycle. If we take wild hypotheticals like “devoted open source software engineer that has publicly support foss politics which transcends all imperialist regimes, American and Russian, throws away essentially their life’s work and permanently ends their public life all to do something that would be reverted before it hits any actual deployment scenario” and fear monger over them we can make anything’s of sound scary. We better kick out American priests from African countries since it’s clear all Americans are pedophiles. We better kick out anyone associated with Volkswagen, just in case they do that thing again. We better make sure no Spanish ships reach the Americas, just in case. We better kick all Israels out of every single country, just to be sure.
Linux also objectively isn’t western software. It mostly used by China and india both of whom have contributed massively to its code base. Are we going to treat foss contributers and maintainers from China differently?
No, this is clearly evil and racist and true nazism, and we must reverse it even though it doesn’t hurt anybody but the west, and therefore Russia actually wants it, but not really?
I’m sorry, the talking points are confusing here, can I have my lines again?
Does it? Russians can’t do Russian stuff anymore isn’t really controversial.
It is somewhat chucking the baby out with the bath water but I doubt anyone’s losing sleep over it.
Russian stuff is freely, selflessly, and openly contributing to the single most important piece of software in history?
Seems we should want to encourage Russian stuff and eliminate the country btry preventing them from doing that.
