Drivers installation and Belarus

Hello!

I respected Dell very much, I had an alienware before this inpsiron (it died
But after Russia attacked Ukraine, and some of missiles were launched from Belarusian territory I am unable to update drivers - the site says it's because of my region.
Support assist also tells about "unknown error".
Of course, I've faked my IP and installed drivers , and "support assist" worked well :))) Without an error :))
BUT what the hack was that?

Do you really believe that not completing YOUR obligations in the field of drivers support (I purchased a laptop believing I will have a right to download drivers) will stop Putin and the war?

Do you know that IT community is the ONLY one professional area in Belarus who is in opposition to Putin and Belarusian current leader? Do you know that belarusian IT specialists made an electronic exit poll ("the Golos" (The voice) system) that was a main reason for the west to make their decision that belarusian authorities are not legit.
Why the hack  I need to hack your site and support assist software (by faking the IP address) to  download drivers after I updated windows on my  laptop?

Putin's income is oil and gas.
It is currently purchased by Europe and other countries and covers 1000% of the price of the war.

The fact that you don't allow belarusian IT specialist not connected with military in any way to update his drivers on a laptop (without "hacking" such as IP spoofing) looks stupid and redicious.

The sanctions imposed by the United States on Russia and its allies are both restrictive and binding on companies based in the United States against doing any business with countries under sanction.  It wasn't Dell's choice to leave these markets and abandon all support -- it was a decision made by the US government with which Dell is legally required to comply.
