There are a number of issues with this. The public crates registry is available in sanctioned countries, and it’s not even used by default anymore.
This is independent of crates.io only supporting GitHub as a sign-up option. People from sanctioned countries can also sign up for GitHub accounts, but cannot access private ones or paid membership features.
The author conflates these two issues in a way that confuses the point they are trying to make, which has nothing to do with the crates.io registry being on GitHub or access from sanctioned countries.
