The NSA, the original primary developer of SELinux, released the first version to the open source development community under the GNU GPL on December 22, 2000.[6] The software was merged into the mainline Linux kernel 2.6.0-test3, released on 8 August 2003.

He’s from Finland so somehow I don’t think he is going to shed a tear over some Russians.
The current actions of Russia are concerning. I think the move to remove Russians is not all that controversial.
True. Recently read that Finland, during the time they were alloed with the Nazis, created concentration camps to hold Russians.

Was that before or after Russia allied with the Nazis to kill the Polish?
The Poland that invaded and captured Czechoslovakia along with the Nazis?

The USSR’s non-aggression treaty that put their own safety first over Poland came only after Poland wnd other Western powers(England, France etc) sided with the Nazis, right?
I can also understand it as a temporatory solution. I understand that Linus wouldn’t want to see his product used by russians commiting war crimes. They can still contribute to linux apps, only the kernel is prohibited. But i think if the situation gets better, russians should be allowed to contribute again. But i got much more upset on that people call Mozilla woke for its moderation efforts to combat hate speech aimed on marginalized groups. War criminals and the far-right has no place in any open-source community, as the concept itself is closer to the left wing by nature. I might be a bit unpopular with this, these are controversial stuff
