    It seems that Adobe officially supports users in Russia by not assepting their payments. Now you can use free software and use your money on something else.

      This just proves how bad idea it is to rent the software you need to work.

      This time is was Russia. Who's next?

      WEF's goal for 2030 is that "we will own nothing and never have been happier".
      Adobe's cloud model was implemented much earlier.
      I'm pretty sure that the Russian designers aren't feeling too happy right now.

      I guess it's time to re-evaluate which software I use.
      I have absolutely no interest in being interrupted in my work flow because of political turmoil.

        Unless your country's leaders are planning an unprovoked attack on another nation, I wouldn't worry too much about the impact of economic sanctions on your workflow.  

         

        To be honest, sun spots and CMEs concern me a lot more as they can wreak havoc on telecommunications systems and satellites.

        Short Answer: Putin is punishing innocent people in Ukraine.  So the US and other countries are punishing Putin.
