I don't get how it is so openly normal to, as a country or nation (or combined group there-of), cut off an entire targeted country from technological advancement for commercial reasons or any reason for that matter. That just seems like a terrible (and more like a not-so-distant-future scifi movie) thing to do, is it not? I might just be missing information that makes it acceptable, though I can't really imagine any reason right now that would make this ok... ๐Ÿค”
