My 2 cents, if somehow github can, throttling the Russian ip may be good.

1. It still provide access to citizens

2. Those with vpn can still access it unthrottled

3. It makes the news and set precedent

4. Nobody should underestimate how angry a programmer with a slow connection will be

EDIT: with recent censorship from Russia, it's a tricky situation if github show some "invasion" notice there. Either Russia block github themselves or they irritated because they can't do anything.

Ha, this is true, a slow connection is more of a hassle than no connection.
