Good luck finding the resources to make that stock more globally. A ban might be somewhat more effective if made at a federal level in the US but would they care about a state level ban or a ban from a smaller country like the UK? A single country/state ban is not going to be terribly effective even in that country/state: who is going to enforce it at the border unless there is some national security interest involved?
