Not a lawyer, so don't sue if I'm wrong:-), but : I think the requirements are 2fold : 1) It must have been developed outside of the US, other than by a US citizen/company 2) It must be stored on a non-US site of a non-US citizen/company This, of course, doesn't mean that you *can* get it lawfully, only that you dont infringe ITAR by doing so, since most countries have their own regulations in that area, some more stringent than others. I also read (not sure where or when) that ITAR only applies to encryption usable as such, not to encryption technologies used say, in an authentication package and not independently accessible.
[snip] Thus proving the idiocy of ITAR yet again... About all export restrictions on this stuff seem to accomplish is criminalizing and inhibiting the sharing of data designed to meet security needs. i.e. they do a great job of screwing the good guys. [snip]
Not even that (see above comment,) though it still makes things harder than necessary. BTW, does anyone know what ITAR stand for ? -- Michel Lavondes |It's is not, it isn't ain't, and it's it's, not its, lavondes () tidtest total fr|if you mean it is. If you don't, it's its.
