Just so we're clear, your opinion is that Russians working for sanctioned companies should remain as maintainers of the kernel because Torvalds is a Finn and that he's obligated to Russia because "Finland bad"?

So, therefore, Putin can and should exploit access to the kernel via these Russian maintainers because Finland is somehow historically worse than the USSR?

Am I misunderstanding you?

No, just that things said are inconsistent and partially wrong
