I have never heard that analogy in this type of context.

But anyway isn’t the form more for the government than the “corpos”? This is like export control.

    It's like tears in the rain, no one really notices or cares, I just thought that was a more funny way to use that analogy. Insignificance. Also this has no legal standing, explain that to a newly enlisted on how their computer can't leave the country on a deployment. I don't think the government would touch this with a ten foot pole.
