I understand the necessity of embargoes, but I’m a little torn on this one, given the ubiquity of Slack, IP crackdown mistakes aside.

Hypothetical: If you build a product meant for use in other countries than (also as well as) the one it’s been built in, should you be allowed embargo its use based on the (possibly arbitrary) politics of a single one of those countries?

I suppose the makers can do as they please/are required to in their home country.

However, it opens another costly-to-startups hypothetical: If the politics of our home country swing to the (insert x-axis direction) and we decide (insert country Y) are baddies, do we have the resources to comply with an enforced embargo?
