Just leaving this ugly piece of crap here.
I know these kinds of stuff are not welcome here, sorry anyways. But am I sorry if it's insulting? Of course not. Those who really feel the insult in this shit are listed below.

Well Google is just a little piece of shit ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So for legal reasons enforced by these nations, google can’t operate its services I assume?

GitLab migrating to Google gets hit by these legal rules by inheritance 🤷‍♂️

Not seeing a google issue here just a bunch of nations that for what ever reason won’t let google operate.

@C0D4 well they didn't have this issue at Azure?

@C0D4 No, it's not. It's a legal reason, ironically illegal by the international law, enforced by the United States of America.

You were able to access gitlab from North Korea?!?😲😲😲

@beleg what’s the link? Happy to read though to actually understand this.

@C0D4 I'm talking specifically about Iran's case.

Well wiki is not actually a good resource. I have alot to discuss about this, from why Google put this in effect selectively, to why this is not a US "withdrawal" at all, but simply a "violation" of a multilateral agreement and a UN security council resolution. But politics is discouraged here. You can do some research if you're interested, and might land on some alternative resources, if you're lucky. The fact that this happens and no body hears of it shows mainstream media have done their job.

BTW to understand the scale of this for devs:

I don't know if sharing this is a good idea. I'm afraid they shut it down as an evident attempt to construct nuclear weapons.
This is a free proxy service made by some good people to let Iranian devs do their job. This file contains the list of domains it serves, that means they are blocked for Iranian IPs. And this is yet only a small part of the problem; everydyay I see people having problem finding their medicine, you know you can't import them via proxy.

@korengali oooh noooooo pleaaaaase dooonnntt.
Or wait, they can't do nothing about it anyway, because... um... they suck ass
