Russian Sanctions and Big Tech.

[nukenorman]

If these Russian sanctions are supposed to be big and hit hard got a question for everyone. Is FB, Amazon web services, Microsoft and Google going to be allowed to operate in Russia?

How are people supposed to get copies of windows sold on new laptops or purchase license keys?  Since only 2 phone companies in the world ( Google and Apple ) if you exclude the Harmony OS that is made by Huawei in China only and even in CHina most people are using Google android and Apple iOS. 

So yea without big tech as amazon is big on webservices, without MS and Apple and other big tech what do you see all happening? Seems like everyone in Russia is still on FB.

Since these companies are so big and Russia is a huge market share for them will big tech be excluded?

I do not see everyone in Russia switching to Linux and I bet people in Russia still going to be using Google Android or Apple iOS. 

One last thing while not really big tech is Hollywood still going to be able to sell movies to movie theatres there or live streaming services?

Let's discuss!

All trade of all kinds with Russia should be embargoed until they cease this senseless war of aggression.  Block their IP blocks from the central DNS servers to cripple their internet access and shut down all trade routes.
