      Russia is being sanctioned because of its aggressive war against Ukraine.

      Microsoft aren’t the bad guys for enforcing international sanctions.

          Yes. That’s how sanctions work.

          Part of the intention is to pressure citizens of the country for violating international law so they exert pressure on their governments to stop.

          Another part is to remove the use of tooling to support the sanctioned nation.

          Russia could stop the war and problem is solved. This isn’t Microsoft being the bad guy, this is Microsoft following international law.

            Does that work?

            Is it right to tell random people “hey you, it’s your job to break local laws and topple your dictator, we could invade you with actual trained military people but that would be inconvenient for us”?

              “Is it right?” Are you kidding? Yes, it’s obviously a better alternative than invading another country and killing people. It’s one of the ways we have learned, as a species, to avoid massive wars and losses of life. If you’re advocating for war as an alternative then you should fuck off and die so you don’t get other people killed in the process.
