Reminder that sites like github / Sourceforge, et al that don't ban countries that are on the USA's "no exports" lists face criminal penalties for continuing to service those countries.

source: worked at Sourceforge when we had to ban certain countries.

Trust me, it's not a decision I agreed with or thought was useful. But my feelings on it were irrelvant.

If you want to change the system change the export laws related to open source projects and contributions outside of the USA.
