> I can see a real possibility of the current administration enacting export controls on the European Union for a perceived slight against the President, and Congress will not stop him. For example, if crates.io is an American-based software service, there is a real possibility that the US could ban the owners from allowing access from EU IPs.
This seems incredibly far fetched. Paranoia is a healthy practice but there is a point when it goes too far.
- Lyrex 6y agoI don't think it is. (disclaimer: I do live in the EU) The current US administration is already trying today to force close allies to conform to their will using economical pressure. I can imagine a future where this might escalate, so in my opinion forcing US companies to block certain origin countries if not that far fetched.
