Tech failing to pull out of Putin

jpod · 6 Apr 2022 at 17:15

Hi

Following Russia's' invasion in Eastern Europe how do you feel about tech companies who are not pulling out?

Personally I will be ditching any products from companies that do not pull out.

I am ambivalent about John Deere because their tractors are doing so well.

And what VPN can they use? Boris was talking about it. Opera?

Best wishes pod

Which companies remain 'in' Russia so to speak, various companies have made announcements regarding removal, which have either not, or have committed to continued trade?

Let me google that for you Destination so you don't have to: https://som.yale.edu/story/2022/over-600-companies-have-withdrawn-russia-some-remain

I can see there is a rich seam of mirth in GD. My lemonade came out of my nose. Keep going. Tell more.

Wait until you find out who supplies bombs being dropped on Yemen...

Is there someone else we need to pull out of? Do tell.

Good old John Deere pulled out of Russia and Belarus https://www.deere.com/en/stories/featured/john-deere-suspends-shipments-to-russia/

On google maps there is a John Deere sales property in the industrial estate there the oil storage facility was blown up in Russia over the border. Interesting to have a look at it and the quality of the houses in that region in contrast to Putin's palace.

Forum buddies, yesterday we were pulling out of Putin.........today share your thoughts on military penetration.

Those farmers have had a fine harvest.
