Another instance of "some are more equal than others".
Try selling your service to an embargoed country and report back the results (from jail probably).
Also another instance of "breaking the law is fine if it goes with my ideals".
Rule of law is crumbling in the US. That's never a good thing.
- edgyquant 4y agoYou realize the US government has been backing spacex because we want these capabilities? Musk is a military contractor and Iran a geopolitical rival. This is not a business decision h the is the US government showing what it’s been building towards during “the decline of America”

- edgyquant 4y agoThis is not corruption as that is a legal term that doesn’t apply. I assume you’re left leaning: as usual your worried more about how bad you’re deluded into thinking we are, all at the expense of actual suffering people (the Iranian population.) Your worldview is sick and petty. There are people out there living under actual evil regimes stop conspiracy theorizing about how shit you don’t even understand.
- JumpCrisscross 4y ago> try selling your service to an embargoed country and report back the results This isn’t what SpaceX did. It asked the State Department to let it sell. State created an exception to the sanctions mechanisms open to anyone.
- zardo 4y agoIf you are selling something that is destabilizing the (official US enemy) government then like here, there's a chance they will grant an exception. Especially if it's something that makes the US look noble.
