      No, I also found the way he handled it really distasteful. Even before his response, just generally the way the whole thing was attempted under a veil wasn’t great. The actions taken should have been transparent from the start.

      I do agree that it shouldn’t be polluting this thread like this though.

        Hey, all of those people knew in advance what will happen. I know people who are working for companies under sanctions, that were contributing to kernel before the war, and all of them knew that at some point they might be banned from that, and they still aren’t, their contributions just aren’t merged without review.
        The Russian sympathisers trying to spin it as their sudden act of russophobia out of the blue, but it’s absolutely everything but. When you work for Putin and his war, you shouldn’t be surprised that people don’t trust you implicitly.

      What is the point of this comment? Linus was childish as hell in the email chain and started a bunch of drama for literally no reason. I’m not mad as much as I am embarrassed to be a part of the Linux community when things like this happen.
