    Yandex is a Russian IT conglomerate with over 25,000 people employed, including continued business in the EU. Some of these employees are actively contributing to open source projects on which many infrastructures rely worldwide. Now with Yandex actively cooperating with the criminal Russian government when should we draw a line to prohibit any commits coming from the state sponsors of terrorism, and especially from employees of organizations supporting terrorist regimes?
