That sounds good and all, but the ones aho are really affected are the powerless people.
That's the objective or they learn to overthrow their shit leader of they don't get western tech
Most sanctions, aside from ones aimed at individuals, are going to have indirect effect. That is, they will produce pressure on Russia in aggregate, and that means that they'll impact the typical citizen.
But that being said, there have been a lot of sanctions applied, and...the impact on Nvidia drivers isn't, I think, really a huge one relative to those. Like, things like cutting off access to all kinds of electronics parts and payment system access and stuff are going to be, I'd say, a lot more impactful to a typical person in Russia, even if the impact is secondary.
