They are currently seen as a front internationally aren't they? Probably as much as they ever will be.
It'll have some effect but I'm not convinced that the lost business would pay for the fight necessary to change the circumstances. The fight would be hugely expensive, in cash and political capital and not likely to make a difference.
The best decision for the bottom line would be to put up a show of a fight and do "we're trustworthy" marketing while getting in on that sweet defense contractor money (especially when you are encouraged to cooperate and lie about it by the law) instead of actually changing things. This is what I see them doing, and I'm not convinced there is any reason for them to change.
