Liberals love collective punishment and have been in a Russophobic bender for decades, with an uptick in recent years. They hate all Russians and repeat racist rhetoric from Ukrainian Nazis.
The security issue is very likely scenario. If you’re in Russia, you can go to jail at any moment on totally bogus charges. It is very easy for FSB to pressure some random kernel maintainer into adding hard to detect backdoor into their code, it will be XZ situation all over again.
I mean fuck Russia, but if these people aint regime whores for Putin I don’t get the angle here…
If there is no security issue, this seems excessive.

thank you… now this makes sense.
so presumably this applied to Russians nationals living within Russia.
If that’s accurate, the measure is proper IMHO
