    Not that I condone Microsoft, but if it is a sanctioned country (Russia, Iran, North Korea, etc.). Microsoft will be in shit with the US government if they let it there.

    If the project has contributors from there, then I guess they need to move off GitHub like they did.

      If I interpret this toot correctly, there wasn’t a direct commit from a sanctioned region, but one developer was in one of those regions for a short while quite some time ago. And he may have been flagged because of this.

      If they can tell they’re from a banned region why are they letting them push in the first place. Sounds like a convenient excuse.
