Because currently none of the programs in non-us have their origins in the US. So i do not export anything from the us to the T7 countries.

If thats the case why is there no need to have the export regulation notice on the non-us mirrors today ? > involved, both for being easier for the Feds to get ahold of, and for > playing a larger role in the actual export...
