Hello, Dropbox is ending its work in Russia?My program works only with Dropbox, there are no analogues for replacement.
On Feb 24, 2022, at 4:00 am, Russia started a war with Ukraine to take over a sovereign European country. On 28 Feb: 352 civilians died (16 kids) and 2040 are injured (45 kids). Ukraine needs military assistance, as its armed forces are much smaller than those of the Russian Federation. Unfortunately, the EU countries and NATO are afraid to help armed participation in the war, fearing Putin's threat to launch nuclear weapons. The international community, including the EU countries and the United States, is working to strengthen sanctions against Russia.
We ask Dropbox to join the sanctions against the global aggressor and restrict access for all users from Russia. Since this service is popular with Russians and is used to store and transfer information related to the unleashed world war and propaganda content files, as well as individuals and companies from Russia involved in the outbreak of war or participating in it.
Since the start of the war, all Russian banks are under sanctions, therefore, it is also necessary to delete all accounts that are paid with cards of Russian banks.
These measures may limit the activities of peaceful professionals from Russia. But now, when their colleagues and friends from Ukraine are being killed by the Russian military, we ask you to support global sanctions against Russian aggression that began in Ukraine.
War is aggression, destruction, and selfishness!War is fear, poverty, and despair!
Oh! Smbdy (who actually didn't know where Ukraine situated) wants to bring politics here...
Information about imminent sanctions against Russian users slipped through the news resources. What specific sanctions will be applied to users on the territory of the Russian Federation and when? On the site, in the section on restricting access to DropBox from Crimea in 2014, it is said only about paid subscriptions. What will happen to the free Basik subscription for ordinary people outside of business and politics?
Who are "we"? Have you personally looked into the materials of the russians in the dropbox?
extremely interested in the same question. Silence is a crime!
I agree that you should join the sanctions against Russia. This is a global terrorist.
Also interested!
Working with Russia = supporting terrorism. Only total Russia blocking may stop them from killing other countries.
Who knows about it?
We ask you to consider this statement as soon as possible, since Russia, realizing that Ukraine and the free people are ready to defend themselves, has launched massive missile attacks on cities and civilians. The number of killed and injured free and peaceful people is growing every hour.
This is central square of Freedom in Kharkiv. Russians sent a rocket at the morning. On central square. Of freedom. Freedom.
ANY Official answers???
Looks like dropbox supports Russia and you should know who supports global terrorism (
I can't seem to find any info on the dropbox blog.
Well, the most important thing is to not panic. Btw. I think it doesn't matter if dropbox will block Russia or not.
Of course it matters. There is a big list of companies which stopped to support russian aggression and do not want to take part in killing people in any way. Now all people would be more selective and would chose the brand who did the right chose. Fortunately most popular brands did it. So it would not be an issue to use another cloud drive service. Will wait some time and if they decides to support the war, will switch to onedrive.
In the coming days, due to Russia-Ukraine issue, will the current domain name be disabled in Russia? And if so, does Dropbox have a backup domain name for Russia to visit?
Oh, putin's bot came here. As probably everyone know the russia does not have the history - currently they have something like mythology. They should definitely contact with Mongolian historians - they could help them to remember who they are.
Just remember, today russia is not pushkin, lermontov etc - today it is chekotilo, beria, putin and red mold (the band putin uses for his quotes).
So every company which is going to work in nearest future should cut all contacts with russia to do not become toxic.
Will believe in you Dropbox. Do not support any bloody regimes.
This won't be a sanction against Russian aggression. This is a boycott about only people who can change something.
This will restrict human rights organizations in Russia help people both in Russia and in Ukraine.
I am Russian and I am not opposing economic sanctions, even though my family has nothing to eat.
But boycotting fighters with the regime by limiting instruments, and then ask why Russians don't do anything?
Good day - I am still alive. Today I woke up at 6 AM because of loud boom. The 14 floor building was targeted with russian bomb or rocket while people were sleeping there, which is 10 mins walk from my house.
The advice: every time you hear the story about "good russians" - read the history of Ukraine book. Since the Golden Horde founded this s**t it destroys everything around them.
Of course you still have a chance to make the period of reparations and contributions shorter. The nation of slaves could make only famine revolutions (or as we call "hamburger revolution"). So, yes every business which does not want to go together with russian warship should stop any operation there. And Yes, the "special financial operation" (we do not call it sanctions) should be continued and become harder to stop destroying of Ukrainian cities and killing of Ukrainian people.
Still waiting the Dropbox to stop any work at the territory of aggressor.
Please write more! Dont stop! Take more time to text! Keep hate! Sure you have found the target of your life, im glad on you!
The company had the good sense not to shut down the servers. Everything works in Russia!Thanks for this !The truth is with us!You yourself will see everything in the future!Down with Nazism and propaganda!
Sorry to break the news to you, but the current government of Ukraine is the aggressor and started all of this. Why should Russia be banned and lose access to their data security because of instability that has been going for literally hundreds of years.I'm Ukrainian Jew with Russian family. The same people the West is now supporting killed my family 100 years ago, and again in 2014. War is terrible, but you can't just make a one sided case for things. There wouldn't be a war if the USA had leadership. This is 100% on the US. Should we ban people here in the US too?Let's all just get along and leave politics for the voting booth. Putin was fairly elected but was gradually dropping off in support until this happened. Sanctions just will make Russian compete.Finally, a couple of the most influential engineers at Dropbox were Ukrainian Jews too. They (hopefully) know that 'Slava Ucraini' is hate speech and what they say when Jews and other minorities are murdered by the cossacks. Unless you know who Petliura, Bandera, Khelministky, and how they tie into current day nationalist beliefs, then you have no business making a political argument about this.War crimes? Yea, they are coming from both sides. Let's stop this, but trying to cancel people is just going to make Dropbox a target for an attack. Dropbox should play zero role in this. If they are ordered to sanction Russia from internal sanctions, they should divest, sell off, and fight tooth and nail to protect people's data. This is what is important for this forum, not politics.
No politics here. This forum is the place to discuss Dropbox clients problems and supporting bloody regimes is a problem. And it is not only about Dropbox. Every business should cancel russia. It is the only way to stop the wild horde from east.
And do not call you Ukrainian Jew - @Chai234 seems you are putin's Jew, infected with kremlin propaganda. You are still using kremlin fakes to talk about historical personalities - read history books based on facts and forget about russian mythology.
My grand grand mother buried on Babyn Yar (recently was attacked by russian rocket - the family with children died there).
My grand mother with grand father moved to Stryi (West of Ukraine) in 1943 to hide from hitler nazi and russian communists.
My relatives from St.Peterburg moved to Israel a long time ago (so they were not infected with this propaganda).
We do not call us "Ukrainian Jews" - we all are Ukrainians (does not matter what religion we have).
And Yes, as it has never been a hate speech (only in sick russian's fantasies), Glory to Ukraine, Glory to USA, Glory to EU, Glory to Israel and to all other partners. And glory to all heroes who help us to protect from russian fascism.
