My point is that imagine you are a user from Cuba and you have downloaded Fedora. Why would *you* care about the EXPORT CONTROL section ? What is the U.S. going to do, embargo the country ? invade it ? :) I personally find it very strange they put this in the EULA, because putting the responsibility onto the user is very strange if you don't trust that user in the first place.
this is a big contradiction, at least for me.
But then again, the file is there because of U.S. regulations, not Cuban regulations. And hell, maybe they put it there to scare a few Cubans on
then you mean nothing legal here, just a way of scare people (just for fun?)
the way. It worked for you, right ? ;)
scared ? no. just confused.
