We remind you of what you need to know about air quality and what useful tools are available for monitoring it.

Ukrainian freelancers and agencies are being blocked on the Upwork platform. This is not just a loss of accounts, but also a source of income, which for many IT professionals is the only one. More than 100 cases are already known, including accounts with an income of $300,000. According to Kyrylo Kozak, an entrepreneur and former Upwork community manager in Ukraine, who is working on unblocking Ukrainian accounts and is cooperating with the Ministry of Digital Affairs on this issue, the platform has responded to his request and will begin unblocking. He also analyzed the blocking to identify key issues and the cities where IT users were most often banned. He also provided some tips on how to avoid this if you work during airstrikes and live within the range of electronic warfare.
