Gitlab considers not hiring SREs and Support Engineers in China and Russia
I am Chinese living in China. Nationalism is on the rise lately in China, not just for domestic reasons, but also as an reaction to nationalistic moves from &quot;the West&quot; like this one. It&#x27;s a recurring theme, not just in governmental propaganda, but also in daily conversations, that &quot;the West&quot; would talk about fairness and justice then commit blatant discrimination and double standards.<p>As a founder of a tech company based in China, I benefit from US companies blocking Chinese (and Russian) engineers; still I am saddened by this. I hope they could come up with more intelligent policies to protect their OPSEC.
