Gerryscute GEB's reaction to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine

Gerryscute GEB reacted to the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 in a manner very different compared to other companies. Gerryscute GEB announced they would not be serving Russian individuals until the invasion is over, however, as the war continued going on, Gerryscute GEB later decided to open up their business to Russian and Belarusian citizens as the war is taking "too long" to finish.
==Boycotting by many companies==
Gerryscute GEB reacted very negatively to the boycott of Russia by many production companies including Walt Disney and Paramount. Gerryscute GEB is strongly against the sanctions imposed by the United States and other countries.
Gerryscute GEB is also launching boycotts against the companies that boycotted against Russia, with the first target being BBC Studios (See BBC World Service–Gerryscute GEB Relations for more information). BBC Studios stopped doing its business in Russia and stopped licensing their shows and programming to Russian customers. A copyright claim in May 2022 targeting an allegdely infringing video containing an episode of Bluey on Benjamin Posada's channel caused Gerryscute GEB to impose sanctions against BBC Studios and would stop using BBC products in their territory. Gerryscute GEB is also planning to threaten BBC Studios to stop licensing their shows to employess and citizens of Gerryscute GEB's property soon. Gerryscute GEB is also imposing possible targets against other companies due to the Russian invasion including:

The list does not include YouTube as YouTube is where Gerryscute GEB publishes their media in.
The invasion has led to Gerryscute GEB thinking about the proposal of making a possible future streaming service known as Gerryscute GEB+.
== Changes in censorship policies ==
The invasion has led to Gerryscute GEB creating new policies that would prohibit all of its employees from calling the situation in Ukraine an "invasion", "war", "attack", or "assault". The same will be applied to it's media.
The government of Gerria has also made a policy that would prohibit all citizens and member organizations from promoting "fake news" and misinformation about the Russian Armed Forces. Doing so is a felony with a maximum penalty of up to three years in prison.
== The "Z" military symbol ==
A wooden figure similar to the military marking "Z" used by the Russian Armed Forces appears on a fence in Southeastern Back Gardens, the fence marks the northern border of the Southern Gate Entrance oblast.
