Yeah, right. Those of us looking from the outside do not have such
simplistic views of the US, sorry.
But our viewpoint is not purely about OpenBSD as open source. We
make our code available for people to use in a commercial setting,
so we must meet a higher standard.
As the only completely operating system focused on staying outside the
realm of US crypto export POLICY, we don't intend to change our
approach.
How does current US law/policy affect someone traveling with OpenBSD? Is
having OpenBSD on my laptop a problem? Does downloading in the US from a
server outside the US solve travel problems? Is carrying OpenBSD on cd's
also a problem? I will soon be traveling and want to avoid problems.
Thanks for keeping OpenBSD clean from US control. As an American
citizen, I am absolutely terrified with the Fascist direction my country
is headed.
I think OpenBSD would have problems in the near future if it became
entangled with US cryptography laws.
