Another question is what about all the registries, over 200, which
IANA administers? Should allocations to Russia be pulled, even
re-allocated?

They range from MAC address prefixes for your ethernet and wi-fi chips
to unique battery IDs used by your devices to verify the correct
battery has been plugged in and to locate software for it, and etc
etc. etc.

Much of it is really boring stuff to most people but without it
manufacturing and marketing of these components is basically
impossible.

And I'll ask yet again: Under what conditions should any such
sanctions be reversed?
