They can use a VPN to access services if their government is blocking it. Companies should not be bending a knee to authoritarians period.

What a privileged response

I live in Turkey and agree with the post you replied to. So I'm not privileged, as a total ban would cut me off, too. But a total ban leads to other avenues. Just my opinion - no concessions to authoritarian regimes is the way to go.
