Free software means that the developers cannot decide who can use it
and who cannot. If we had the power to stop Russia from using a
program,
we would also have the power to anyone else from using it.
That would not be free software.
True.
We could become uncivil and block people from downloading a free
software program, but there are no such (as far as I know) ipchains
blocklists on [6]www.gnomeradio.org, so
there is no reason to do so either. We live in civil democracies, but
Russia and Putin has invaded Ukraine.
I have recently added Retro FM in Kyiv, Ukraine after discussions with
Magnus ([7]dizzi90@gmail.com), when we saw that someone with a Russian
IP address deliberatedly tried to remove Retro FM from the list of
Ukrainian radio stations on [8]en.wikipedia.org, so we decided to loop
censorship on Wikipedia and therefore published the station in GNOME
Radio 16.0.6 for GNOME 42 to a global mirror of GNOME.
