I was wondering about the consequences of breaking the restrictions, e.g. how severe are the penalties? I would love to read that as a headline in a newspaper "US Gov. sues free education provider for educating people in x".
- riggins 13y agowikipedia's not the best source but from my limited experience this is in the right magnitude, with the key thing being $55k per violation. That can add up quickly depending on how its interpreted. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_embargo_against_Cuba http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_embargo_against_C... Criminal penalties for violating the embargo range up to ten years in prison, $1 million in corporate fines, and $250,000 in individual fines; civil penalties up to $55,000 per violation.
