On domestic organizations, local governments, etc.?
- kube-system 3y agoYes, everyone within the legal arms-length of the US is required to comply with sanctions prohibitions -- if sanctions are applied. The OFAC has a lot of power.
- MichaelZuo 3y agoHuh, seems like quite a misnomer then.
- kube-system 3y agoSanctions all apply to foreign entities, that's consistent with the name.
- MichaelZuo 3y agoHuh? Local governments of the US paying off ransoms, and then getting punished for it, would be punishing a domestic entity.
- kube-system 3y agoTrade inherently involves two parties. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The US hasn't sanctioned any of these addresses yet. They could, and if they did, the OFAC would be how they'd do it... if they decide to. The only thing they announced that they're going to do so far is share information about them.
