I used to work for a financial company that used such extensive blocking. One day I had to download a particular version of boost libraries (the C++ ones). Of course all official sites to download from were blocked. So I searched for the sp

Right. Lawmakers should follow the regular insider trading rules. They should be considered insiders for all their trades.
