IMPHO, I think that the removal of Russians contributors from the kernel contributor list is a big error.
Because it is all about politics. And the move let non-technical decisions step into this project.
Is it ok for you, Linus Torvalds, that politics can decide to ban also Chinese, Israeli, Iranian, European contributors? Or any non-USA developer?
Pesky developers or ones sneaking malicious code in need to be banned because their "contribs" would make the kernel worse (in a general sense).
Are Russian, Iranian or Israeliani devs making the kernel any better? Is the quality of their contribs in line with expectations?
Can those contributors harm or negatively affect the project?
Sorry, Linus. While still being a hero for me, that was a bad decision for what my opinion matters.

Honest question: Is this satire?
For someone looking to avoid drama this seems like an awful lot of drama.

I expect Linus will be a little shocked and quite pleased to find this out. The billionaire part, anyway.

I don't know about $$$ but just pulled the latest kernel tree. The guy has checked-in some x86 assembly yesterday.

Good Luck.
Keeping a linux fork is not a task a single developer could afford. .. and cqwrteur don't have good track record working with others.
Honestly I like his idea/direction, but I don't think he can success

Good, people shouldn't be discriminated based on a place where they were born. We all live on one planet together, but people are placing the "county" concept above anything else, which often unites to hate "foreigners"
Who that?
I'd imagine me on a computer in the future:
