I think you're being a bit disingenuous. It seems you're almost implying Chinese and Russians are being randomly discriminated against for no reason, as if the kind of thing Gitlab is worried about has never happened before. Specifically with people loyal to those two countries. Yes, it is discrimination, whether it is baseless discrimination is much more debatable.

Do you have concrete numbers that prove Chinese/Russian workers are significantly more likely to act in bad faith against the companies they work in?
To quote Gitlab's chief legal officer, @cciresi:
