Flag use

I was surprised, last year, when I started playing against some people and only saw a grey rectangle in place of their flag.

Then I realized it was Russian flag, that got blurred as a response to Russian invasion of Ukraine.

I know, it didn't do much in practice, but it was a strong symbolic gesture, showing that chess.com has a moral position and does care about the global events.

However, I didn't see this policy in place with any other armed conflict around the globe... and just recently, it makes me think - will Chess.com apply the same rule towards the use of Israel flag?
