Gosh! There are like thousand github repos that do these stuff. This could become a tool to prosecute a lot of unwanted people like DeCSS.

  Object detection in aerial images is a rather booming field with 100s of papers published on the topic and contests going on in top conferences. I wouldn't be surprised if OSM is also doing some of this. In about 5 minutes I could find these: https://github.com/search?q=geospatial+deep+learning https://github.com/search?q=geospatial+deep+learning https://github.com/search?q=satellite+images+deep+learning https://github.com/search?q=satellite+images+deep+learning https://github.com/search?q=aerial++deep+learning https://github.com/search?q=aerial++deep+learning https://github.com/search?q=aerial+object+detection https://github.com/search?q=aerial+object+detection

    It looks like these don't meet (1) because they don't have "a graphical user interface that enables the user to identify objects"

With a GUI and everything? I find it hard to believe there are a thousand projects doing that.

Lots of interesting precedent to come out of it as well. By putting code on Github, an American website, as a developer are you actually exporting it? Or are the people cloning the repo reaching into America and extracting it? If it is considered exporting, is github the exporter, or is the developer. Just like a company might produce a metal widget but another company procures and exports it, the original company that made the widget isn't the exporter.

  I would not be suprised if we get something along the lines of "Unfortunately, this repository is currently unavailable in your country" sometime soon. Many websites still completely block EU users post GDPR, e.g. Chicago Tribune.

    So that would mean I, as a foreigner, will have to do a little work to import it instead. That won't stop a lot of technically literate people.

      Remember how it was done the last time the idiotic US government did the same stunt with crypto.... Zimmerman (PGP) physically printed and bound books containing the full OCR-happy font of the source code. Evidently to the dinosaurs in Congress, a physical book is something COMPLETELY DIFFERENT than a file online.

    Imagine a world where your project dependencies can be deprecated by import/export law.

      What's there to imagine? We already live in such a world.

Governments don’t make laws to fight other countries. They have armies for that. They make laws to control their citizens.
