Again and again: Shutterstock is Shutterstock and Adobe is Adobe. Both have their independant checking, and noone is checking assets according to political situations. Especially for Ukraine, Adobe did set up a fund to support Ukrainian creatives.
And there is an other thing: Contributors do not check your assets. And assets are getting checked without knowing if the contributor is black or white, gay or straight, male or female, good or bad. Modertors check assets on merits and according to their instructions. Sometimes they err (in refusing good assets or letting through bad assets), most of the time they are really good in their task (well, I need to relativate this: when they check real world photography). And as much as I would like to engage with you into a political discussion, this forum is not the right place to do that. If you want, you can use other plattforms for this. This forum is about contributors and questions about contributions, and as such, this is political neutral as is Adobe stock and Adobe's employees. What needed to be said has been said by Adobe's CEO. And for the rest, Adobe is following the law, as imposed by America's govenment.
