Totally agree. I'd even move to allow importing software and hardware (firmware) only under the condition that the sources be released, audited by the importing country, validated and recompiled (with validated compilers) by the importing country. I can see only advantages to such a scheme: 1- promotes free(dom) software / open source, 2- improves security by forced auditing, 3- by increasing the cost of importing software, promote local production of software, therefore 4- reduce unemployment, 5- this would detect bad firmware (toyota, jeep), before it can be used in deadly applications. etc.
