These "access gates" and export controls are going to look hilariously quaint in a few years. It reminds me of the export controls on PlayStation 2 consoles because it was deemed that 6 gigaflops was a "dangerous" amount of computer power, and it couldn't be allowed to fall into the hands of opposing militaries: https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2000-apr-17-fi-20482-story.html https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2000-apr-17-fi-20482... Now the phone in my pocket does 2,500 gigaflops on battery power, and nobody seems interested in banning its export because of that.
