So.. if I were to take PGP, put it on a floppy disk, tape it to a model rocket, and launch it across the mexican border, that's not exporting it (although the FAA might complain)?
As I read the regs, it's not an export at the moment it's launched, but it's almost certainly an export when it reaches Mexican airspace or when it touches Mexican soil.
Well now, I didn't send it accross the border. I sent it up. wind sent it accross the border.
That's kind of like saying "I didn't export PGP, I just handed a diskette to my Iraqi friend at the airport as he left - what he did with it is his responsibility" # Chris Adams <adamsc@io-online.com> | http://www.io-online.com/adamsc/adamsc.htp # <cadams@acucobol.com> | send mail with subject "send PGPKEY" "That's our advantage at Microsoft; we set the standards and we can change them." --- Karen Hargrove, Microsoft (quoted in the Feb 1993 Unix Review editorial)
