What? He is doing what the lawyers is saying to do, the quote:
"No, but I'm not a lawyer, so I'm not going to go into the details that I - and other maintainers - were told by lawyers.
He is following the sanctions.

He is being pretty vague there. It could be any number of things in the orbit of anti-russia pressuring. That could include the feds pressuring legally, but it could also be many other less direct things or even a personal political decision.
They are being cagey.

That's true. I'm more inclined of the idea that he is just trying to avoid conflict to focus on the development.
That's a common idea that I see in this type of people.

Is that type of person, "asshole"? That seems to be the entirety of Linus' personality, such as it is.
-
I'll not confirm or deny.

Maybe he's trying to avoid conflict with US government, but he clearly is not trying to avoid conflict with that statement.
