Space-X has a large plant investment in California and Texas. Any sales to foreign countries would have to meet ITAR specs.

To remember what the regs were, I had to go get my ancient RSA T-shirt that I bought to support Philip Zimmermann. I normally only wear that when I get a new picture for my driver's license. ;)

GM had a large investment in Detroit. Now most of their cars are being made in China.

I was a project lead for a ground station in Malaysia in ‘96. I had a s/w engineer on my team that had a red passport. He was a PRC citizen. All approved by the Clinton administration.

This was just before Loral and Hughes Aircraft taught the Chinese to launch multiple satellites at a time.

Oh yeah. Apple was heavily invested in California at one time too.

I have one of those! RSA in PERL with the machine readable part in barcode. An export controlled T-shirt. Nobody gets it, ever.

I, for one, welcome our new NSA Overlords /.
