> Based on arbitrary virtue signaling by the Namecheap CEO, is Spaceship gonna give customers one-week notice that their accounts are being dropped for committing the crime of being born in the wrong country, like he did at Namecheap?
Your question contains incredible entitlement. Namecheap's staff is mostly Ukrainian and located in Kharkiv, the city that saw combat on its streets, was almost encircled, and for more than two years has suffered under daily Russian shelling and missile attacks, death and destruction unleashed by Russians are everyday companions there. Do you think Germans had any moral right to demand continuation of services from the UK when Luftwaffe was bombing London? Or that Germans had nothing to do with the Nazi regime? Just incredible.
Everyone serving customers from Russia is complicit in helping the Kremlin keep up the illusion of normalcy: that nothing is wrong, that life goes on, that all you need to do is just shut off your mind and ignore the depraved war crimes that your society commits every day. And the crimes are indeed committed by the whole society: Putin alone is not building missiles, he is not programming their targets or piloting bomber planes, he is not manufacturing artillery shells, he is not on the frontline firing them at Kharkiv, he is not the one raping, looting and torturing - just like Hitler in his bunker was not waging the war against the whole world on his own, but required the overwhelming support of "ordinary Germans" to put his ideas into action.
And before anyone says that "ordinary citizens" can't do anything: then whose responsibility are the things that going on in a country? Are Argentinians responsible? Are Italians? Should the Swedes intervene and bomb Moscow to ashes to slap the society back into respecting basic human decency?
