What about zapping content posted from those countries? Where do the sats go?
They go to their account because we don't maintain any state about where a user is located we only check if/when they are transacting in a sanctioned region.
reply
Does that mean they can’t withdraw when they’re transacting from a sanctioned region, but if they changed to a non-sanctioned region, then they could withdraw?
reply
The way our code currently works, yes, but I'm not sure if that's compliant or not.
reply
What if someone is from a non-sanctioned country, and their VPN randomly selects a sanctioned country during an SN visit, would that permanently lock their account from withdrawing, even if they log in from a non-sanctioned country again?
reply
The thread you're commenting on describes that it doesn't work that way.
There is no locking. As described it prevents transacting.

Makes sense 👍I’ll be interested to see how this evolves over time!
