SynFlag en su blog acaba de tocar un tema sensible. Para ser lo más neutral posible, dejaré que el propio sitio de fedora lo cuente.
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Channel_FAQ#Support_for_US_Embargoed_Nations
If you are from a nation that is embargoed from the US embargoed nations, you should note to the channel that you are in one of those nations. Some helpers may choose to not provide you support for legal or ethical reasons. Others may choose to do so. While you are welcome to ask your questions in #fedora, you may get better support in a region specific channel. See communicate international for a list of such channels.
Dejando de lado el deadlock producido entre los deseos de democracia en Cuba y los deseos del fin del bloqueo (y digo deadlock porque es yo haré tal cosa si tu haces tal otra y el otro dice lo mismo)…….acá se trata de soporte para software libre. Y el software libre en si va mas allá de cualquier restricción económica ¿verdad?. Así que ¿que es eso de que haya ayudantes que puedan negarte el soporte, por razones legales o éticas, sólo por ser cubano o iraní o norcoreano?
Bueno, al menos tienen la decencia de lamentarse de que ocurran cosas así.

The Board finds it unfortunate that these embargoes prevent a true open and free exchange of and participation in the community. It is difficult to reconcile the values of a community that uses, develops, and promotes free and open source software and content with these legal prohibitions, especially in light of Fedora’s core values, especially Freedom.
The Board recognizes that significant portions of our community may be discontent with these embargoes. Nevertheless, it is our responsibility to ensure that the Fedora Project continues to serve the wider open source community as effectively as possible within the bounds of applicable law, including seeking ways to promote useful change.
Pero no la suficiente como para explicar que ofrezcan software libre y que a la hora de descargar pongan esto

SynFlag tambien menciona que esto también ocurre en medidas menores con OpenSuse, y muy menores con Debian y Mozilla, pero se trata en esos casos de exportaciones. De ahí a que puedan no darte soporte………
Antes de hacer este artículo, le pedí la opinión a Elav y me dijo que lo están discutieendo en la GUTL. Seguro que van a decir algo con respecto a esto.
