    Thank you. Would you mind explaining what this means please? What is a U.S.-sanctioned place? Why does the U.S. government think this is a bad thing?

      US likes to impose arbitrary sanctions on its adversaries. Basically the US government decided that people from a particular country aren’t allowed to collaborate with people using US based platforms like GitHub.

      The US has been punishing open source contributors from countries they don’t like.
