Maybe ASUS best remember they are based in Taiwan, which will be the next target. How the world treats Ukraine right now might affect their very future.

Exactly, If Putin succeeds then Taiwan will be attacked (not necessarily on military way) next. If Putin fails then China will think twice.

From the article:
"As Fedorov highlights in his personal note to Asus's affable Chairman, Jonney Shih, the IT industry is generally highly supportive of peace and democracy."

I wish this were true but the "Made in" labels on most of my tech say otherwise.

By the labels they appear to be more in favor of top-down total control of the factors of production (some call them people) because that will keep the stock options "in the money".

Lets not kid ourselves, most of the reduced business activity is caused by the Russians not being able to pay today and their future prospects as customers not looking too great either.
