Yet they have no problem letting people being able to run down to the local
gun store and buying a 30-30 rifle and 1000 rounds, or the local corner and
a vial of crack. But oooooh...that big scary crypto...wow...watch out!
*extreme eye rolling*
I wish they'd give more than lip service to weakening ITAR with regards to
crypto. Banning hooks...how patently absurd. What's even funnier is that
you can import it, not modify it, but not export it back out again... Is
that idiotic, or what?
Then, this IS the American government we're talking about...and I -live-
here...hell, I'm embarrassed to be associated with this country. Anyone
wanna donate towards me moving to England or some other civilized country? :)
