It&#x27;s possible to archive a GitHub repo so that no changes can be made, although it can still be downloaded. I think that&#x27;s better than just removing people&#x27;s repos, which looks like vandalism to me.<p>What Russia is doing in Ukraine is hideous, and if someone could disable all the computers in the Russian military, I would welcome that. But just working for a Russian company does not make someone a combatant.
