Would a US citizen seeding this file to a foreign peer potentially violate export rules and be at risk of major legal trouble if the US gov went down that road?
Like, this is annoying, but all of the secondary actors seeding and whatnot here are provably and knowingly infringing on ITAR.
I don't agree with what's being done by the .gov here, and I don't think it's a good thing, but especially given how we see the courts behave and how we see the confrontational system run, I must remind our overzealous peers here who wish to antagonize the .gov:
Do not taunt happy fun ball.
