I am an SE from Ukraine watching my city being destroyed (for the second time in my life as my family flew from the East of Ukraine in 2014), I wholeheartedly support this.
As a software engineer from Ukraine I totally support that decision.
As a SE from Kyiv, Ukraine I'm begging you to do this
As an IT professional from Ukraine I support this request
Now sitting in a shelter I fully support this!
On behalf of the Ukrainian people who are defending their homeland On behalf of the free democratic world
As you must be aware, there is an ongoing war in Ukraine waged by Russia. The Ukrainians fight their battles not only at the frontline but on the media landscape as well.
Certain Russian websites fuel the flames of war and channel the hatred towards Ukraine; encouraging acts of terrorism and genocide in Ukraine. Disconnecting Russian websites will help bring the Russian propaganda machine to a stop.
As the main companies providing SSL certificates, we hope you choose to contribute to our cause by revoking SSL certificates issued for Russian propaganda websites, as well as stopping issuing new certificates for these companies.
I also ask the CEO of Cloudflare, Inc., Matthew Prince to ban Russia from the Cloudflare services. Disconnecting Russian websites will help shut down the propagandist disinformation flood Russia is feeding to the world. You can help stop the war.
Thank you in advance, we highly appreciate your time and effort.
Stand with Ukraine!
