I know most people on HN heavily lean a certain way but come on, blatant persecution of political enemies.. No matter how you try to rationalise this you know this is wrong. Weaponisation of the judicial branch is what you see in countries we look down on with pity. Hate him all you want, the guy is not a racist or a xenophobe. He would much rather have geniuses from all over the world come work for his company. Even if he set up a very expensive system (probs breaks INA & civil rights) to determine and monitor the legibility of refugees and asylees, he'll still inevitably break ITAR. Most companies that has to follow ITAR does the same thing, this is as cut and dry as it gets when it comes targeted prosecution.
