Microsoft is a US based company. They cannot legally make business with sanctioned entities. And since it's not profitable for them - they just made a geoblock geoblock

Could MS ignore the sanctions in that case? probably

Those people could be Polish or Ukrainian or born somewhere completely different

They have russian state-specific latin names transliterations Except for Roman Tsisyk, there's nothing specific in name.

But most probably the guy from moscow got caught with russian ip which busted the whole gh organization. I don't think gh has any other sanctioned regions users id methods

Not really nice of you to edit the message after it was replied to.

Changing your github profile location does not mean neither factual relocation, nor changing citizenship.

yappin

Just adding context, because thir wording makes everyone think like "out of the blue, by some stupid coincidence one of the developers possibly seemed to be somewhere around some misteruous sanctioned region"

I was wrong, not entirely, but 6-7 out of 10. Had to doublecheck. https://github.com/orgs/organicmaps/people

And there's a wiki page on maps.me(founders are the same, they just sold it and forked a few years later to create organicmaps) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maps.me

"US sanctioned region" is russia. The developer team fully consist of russian citizens, some of them are still in russia.

The only thing that could work - delete/disable/abandon the app and install an analog from f-droid. And even then you'll encounter these notifications a few times per day. I gave up and flashed the phone on a third day to a custom rom

We need a bot that converts imperial units from the post into SI ones. Btw. 160ft is 50 meters
