Politics aside, does this mean that I can’t send a physical book to somebody in USA? I mean, it’s a tariff, and in theory all that is required is to pay some money to customs, but in the case of small traders and private individuals, the onus of setting up a price to base the tariff on, demonstrating that that price is real (otherwise one could set the price to 1 cent), and then figuring out who pays what and how… well, all of that is overkill. And, given present circumstances, all non USA citizens anywhere in the world may feel a very reasonable hesitation to interact with the USA government…customs works next door to ICE, so to speak.
