That raises a question: how to find a domain registar without a lot of Ukrainian employees ?
According to the recent leak, Epik has them a lot as well.
Could we crowdsource such a list of registrars sorted by nationality of their employees to be prepared to the geo risks?
Other people are trying to move to Cloudflare -- but my banking cards are already not working, and I can't pay in USD for their services. Plus to that, even if somebody manages to move to Cloudflare or GoDaddy, there's no guarantee that they won't pull the plug as well.
People here are suggesting nic.ru, which I presume would have a pretty low risk of getting kicked off.
You might consider a list of registrars that do stuff you disagree with instead.
I would prefer to work with companies where different nationalities are represented.
90%+ of employees in one country (be it Ukraine, Russia, USA or China) is a geo-risk for clients.
And mind you, Namecheap doesn't ban clients based on their agreement or disagreement with something. It bans pro-Ukrainian dissidents in Russia too.
Racism culture thrives in mono-ethnic companies and this Namecheap case is a good example
I am not my government, and apart from starting a one-man revolution with a pretty obvious result, I'm doing everything I can to raise awareness, condemn actions of Russian government, and put an end to this. I've been doing so since 2011, back when I was a college student.
Namecheap -- this is a low move. While I do understand that your company has a lot of Ukrainian employees, all of which are in grave danger, you're not doing anyone a favor by making a shitty life of most Russian nationals even shittier.
