Would it be hyperbolic to say vendors like Blue Coat have blood on their hands?
Yeah it's just a tool and yeah your workplace or school might need one to "keep the children safe", and yeah they're not responsible for what their customers do with their products. But when they knowingly sell[1] to repressive governments where bad things happen to dissenters, what does that make them? And please spare us the "terrorist" and "criminal" barf, we've heard it in the West.
Any Blue Coat care to comment?
