"I was under the naive assumption that it's individual developers who work together, and their employers do not really matter."

This assumption is not just naive but completely oblivious under normal circumstances, let alone in a discussion about sanctions regime compliance and risk management.

It looks like being oblivious from outsiders perspective, but people living in Russia have culture of being apolitical, because as long as you don't care about politics, politics (Russian Government) does not care about you.

That then leads to bizarre situations when Russia is waging full scale war and Russians are doing their best not to notice.
