DefenseServices (fwd)
Jim Miller says:
Section #120.9 of the ITAR defines "Defense Service" as:
(1) The furnishing of assistance (including training) to foreign persons, whether in the United States or abroad in the design, development, engineering, manufacture, production, assembly, testing, repair, maintenance, modification, operation, demilitarization, destruction, processing, or use of defense articles; or (2) The furnishing to foreign persons of any technical data controlled under this subchapter (see #120.10), whether in the United States or abroad.
This is sick. According to this, I cannot teach foreigners about cryptography in the U.S. -- even about the open literature. This is a grotesque denial of my first amendment rights. They just FUCKED OFF a big chunk of your second amendment today but I bet you don't even know about it. Do not worry, when they ban your crypto program they will let you buy another one. What FUCKIN' RIGHTS, I DON'T SEE NO STINKIN' RIGHTS!!!!!! Duh what's a PGP and an FTP?

The strongest reason for the people to retain there right to keep and bear arms is as a last resort to protect themselves against tyranny in government. <-------- Thomas Jefferson --
