I live in Russia (Moscow) and I'm working for leading
russian internet company. I'm very annoyed by current
political and economical situation. I was so upset by events
happening last months that I simply stopped reading
russian news at all.
And I spent all the time in places like GitHub, Topcoder,
English Wikipedia, Hacker News etc. Yesterday, I've tried
to make yet another commit to my private repository and
suddenly I failed to connect to GitHub.
The main problem in russia is not just politicians,
it's a vast majority of russian people who voted for Putin
and his party and totally support current regime.
...
Furthermore even IT guys like Putin regime and don't get worry
about crazy laws passed against the internet. I assure you in
that because many of my colleagues really like Stalin and really
like what's happening in Ukraine.
...
And this is why I'm actively looking for a job abroad.
