Russian Imports To Boycott

Let's make a list. I'll start:

Stoli (Stolichnaya) vodka
Beluga vodka
Ruskiy vodka
Smirnov vodka (as opposed to Smirnoff vodka, which is now owned by a British company)

Bosco Sport (sportswear)


Anything else?

Made in Tiraspol, Transnistria - Russia-supported breakaway Moldovan region. It's really good Brandy unfortunately.

I don't think we get much else from them.

and that there were concerns about it having spyware issues, so I avoid it already.

If past accusations of spyware didn't motivate you to ditch that anti-virus application, the Ukraine invasion should.

As someone who does some IT administration, recommend doing a complete system wipe and reload if you're getting rid of Kaspersky.

Oh, I am already boycotting them.

Then again, they're probably less an import, but more like a cheap knockoff.
