@LaF0rge @AdrianVovk Sure, we can and should. But I don't see that as a decision the LF and its associates could have done any different, given that they're bound by law.
What I meant is that no business will publicly discuss their reasoning behind this. The legal departments would throw a fit.
I'd love for sanctions to have FLOSS exemptions, but I'm not sure how realistic that is.

@LaF0rge @AdrianVovk And very few orgs indeed will come clean with "well the government asked us to so we can continue to get their money".
Some countries (Australia, US?) have actual secrecy laws IIRC.

(I need to add a disclaimer here that this is my very personal take, not representative of or informed by my employer, where I'm not in the loop about such decisions anyway.)
