Onlyoffice is apparently Russian, "headquartered" in Latvia.

Latvia is not Russia, unless something recently changed

JFC it can be russian owned and russian controlled and russian employed and pay russian taxes while "headquartered" in Latvia.

Latvia is not Russia

Yet.

And if you look on a Russian map, I'm sure it's there already.

What? Latvia is a part of NATO.

what does it even mean to be russian then?

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

You know, almost entirely staffed by Russians (outside of Latvia), the executive suite is Russian, shareholders are Russian, etc.

Like have you guys never heard of companies being "headquartered" in the Cayman Islands?

Sure, now why would that be a factor for choosing a software or not.

You didn't choose the country you were born in anymore than they did.
