The fact that "technical information" also is now controlled by this order is an interesting problem.

It means that forums like ours that are available internationally might become subject to the order (and to registration and the annual fee) if we discuss such "data" and provide "services" relating to "Significant Military Equipment"... There goes the First Amendment along with the Second Amendment.

In particular, "technical data" could easily be extended in their interpretation to include instruction manuals and blueprints.
