The only people who will suffer from this are the people who are currently in a difficult situation due to them fleeing from Russia. Big companies and people staying in Russia will easily absorb this, of course.

>Big companies and people staying in Russia will easily absorb this

While it seems hard to fathom how big this anti-Putin tsunami really is but can you name any big companies based in North Korea? Like North Korea, Russia has just become reliant upon China for pretty much everything.

I don't see the hundred of thosands of people fleeing Russia at the moment. I do see them trying to get out of Ukraine though. Please stop trying to make yourself a victim. You're really not. You're just a troll.

You are being inconvenienced. People of Ukraine are suffering. Grow up.

Collateral to what? They aren't dealing any actual damage to the regime, just some random people who had the misfortune of being born in the wrong place at the wrong time.

This is NOT collateral damage, these people are the actual target. Who do you think will suffer from this decision? Developers and it nerds mostly.
