I'm not sure the article really makes the point, but in my experience the war has complicated remote work.

I'm tangentially aware of at least one US company that was outsourcing work to Russian and Ukrainian coders. Apart from the obvious "team" dynamics collapsing, it's not even possible (legal) to pay Russians at this point if you are a US company.

I'm also aware that the narrative inside Russia as to the cause of the war is very different to the narrative I hear. Naturally I believe the narrative I hear as do they.

In this global work-space, who you hire and where they live can become material quickly.

Unless you are buying oil, diamonds and many other things through NATO allies or proxy companies registered. But I agree, rules for thee but not for me.
