yeah, bad news but we hope it'll resolve quickly and he gets out of there asap

Honestly disgusting on our part though. Arresting an Emirati/Russian citizen for writing privacy-preserving software is lunacy.

Honestly unless he was quite literally trafficking humans or drugs himself (or was knowingly & deliberately aiding those who were), with substantial proof being made available alongside an accusation like that, I'm going to see it as massive over-reach.

Yeah, it’s that new reality we live in, but also we don’t know even a quarter of all the reasons or info they could have on him to arrest, and we’ll never know
